2013 Books

1. The Walk by Lee Goldberg. What an awful way to start a year of reading. Amazon recommended this book to me, probably because I've bought/read a lot of post-apoc stuff. Netflix must have taught me the bad habit of just adding whatever is recommended (and often regretting it later) because I added it without the author's name "clicking" for me - this is the guy who bashes fanfic but is paid to write TV show episodes. I didn't realize until a full chapter into the book, when I was wincing and cringing about the truly awful writing - the punctuation errors are frequent and horrid - that I realized who this guy is. So, yeah. Avoid this book like a post-apocalyptic plague. TERRIBLE.

2. The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks by Max Brooks. Graphic novel, but more like graphic short stories. Good, but you might as well get it from the library than pay full price for it. :-)

I know, signing up for this was a terrible idea, the chances of me completing anything are so small, but I couldn't resist. Could those of you who've also signed up leave a comment letting me know? I'm going to need support and commiseration, LOL.

I am super relieved that I didn't get too many crazy AU options (weird because I've written my share of AUs for sure.)
