set fire to the room. do it now.
Oct. 22nd, 2012 12:03 pm1) Filed under ways in which I am coping with the current state of politics in my country (besides my annual fall West Wing rewatch): Have just finished reading Feed by Mira Grant, which is set during a Presidential primary 25 years after the zombie apocalypse. YES. Because no matter how much this election might make us all want to tear our hair out, it is not happening after the zombie apocalypse. At least not yet, and if that changes, we'll probably all be too busy getting eaten to care.

2) Filed under chick lit with a bit of scifi flair, and also, I've been looking for a book like this for a long time: Shine Shine Shine by Lydia Netzer. Set approximately in present time, but not quite our current history, since NASA is sending off a manned mission to the moon.

Anybody else reading anything fun? Once I am done with the zombies, I have an intimidating number of sample chapters sitting around waiting for me on my Kindle. By the time I get around to reading them, I've almost always completely forgotten what they were about or who told me to try them. That is how things like this happen: I started in on Feed at about 10:30 one night, and since the first chapter is one of the bits with actual scary (to me) zombies in it, I had to read that entire chapter to see what happened and then send a bunch of emails out saying "OMG I AM READING ABOUT ZOMBIES RIGHT BEFORE I GO TO SLEEP WHAT WAS I THINKING AAAAAAAAAA!" Funny.
