First, you are a fucking nerd............

Anyways I just got done reading WWZ -world war zombie- by Max Brooks. It's really good, I like how it's broken up into interviews of survivors looking back on the war, instead of chapters. I read the last 150 pages in 2 nights.

That will be the next book I read. I've heard nothing but good things about that book.

I recommend reading the Road by Cormac McCarthy, it's depressing, but the thoughts and the questions it produced in my mind was worth it.

by the looks of the previews, its not going to follow it very well. Im prepared to be disappointed actually. Heres why.

Kevin spaceys character, in my mind, i pictured him to be a lot older, a lot more hagard looking, basically everything kevin spacey isnt.

the main character, already has enough to pay for college, almost graduating, not looking for money to pay for college, just looking for some extra dough. And asian btw,

laurence fishbourne's character, a security boss, practically non-existant

Kate bossworth's character (jill taylor), from what i remember, she didnt play poker, she was a rams cheerleader.

*sigh* it better not be like the previews, otherwise im gonna be pissed

i'm a super nerd. i read a lot of historic pieces. i'm obsessed with european royalty. so i read a lot of biographies on 16th and 17th century royal families. i also recommend anything chuck klosterman (pop culture type stuff) and charles bukowski (vulgar perverted humor) hahaha. wow...this is sad.

Ender's Game and that whole series is a favorite of mine... I love reading them.
