Krok Zero I like that crazy-eyed Brad Dourif is apparently a hottie/dreamboat for you.

...and she has to fight Moira for him too. Brad speaks to the ladies with his crazy eyes, and some of us listen.


message 15: by karen (new)

karen yeah! i just started it, but so far it is fantastic!

and yeah - dourif is a total dreamboat - pale and creepy - my type of guy!

i shove moira.

Mike                                              Book reviews are not for shoving.

Gaeta1 I didn't know it was Zombie month! Is it also Evil Clown month?


message 19: by karen (new)

karen i don't know that it is official, but in my reading,it will be zombie month. feel free to join me.


message 20: by Gaeta1 (new)

Gaeta1 If I can pry World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War from my son's grasp, I will.


message 21: by karen (new)

karen ooh, i liked that one.

Maja Yours is by far my favorite review of this book. I'm so happy that you loved it.
I really hope you'll read Feed too.


message 23: by karen (new)

karen aw, thanks!

yeah - i really want to read feed. it seems to be very polarizing. i want to love it, though. i am going into it pure of heart.


message 24: by Maja (new)

Maja I'm glad to hear that! I hope you'll love it, but even if you don't, at least you'll know what all the fuss is about.

I'll be very interested to read your opinion on Stony Mayhall as well. I had numerous issues with it, but some of my friends really enjoyed it.
Oh, and yay for zombie month!


message 25: by karen (new)

karen i will finish it today, probably, i have had too many non-reading distractions. or non-pleasure reading distractions. many academic articles and whatnot.


message 26: by Denae (last edited Oct 18, 2011 07:36am) (new)

Denae Your reviews make me happy. They also tend to add to my already gigantic to read mountain range. ;)


message 27: by karen (new)

karen yeah, goodreads.com is terrible for that. i love the idea of learning about new books, but in reality, it can be overwhelming...


message 28: by Denae (new)

Denae My to read list was 300 when I joined in January. I believe it's now pushing 2200. My boyfriend keeps pointing out that I'll never run out of books to read, which is true, but...it's still scary sometimes.


message 29: by karen (new)

karen i want to become a zombie, just for the whole immortality/time to read part.


message 30: by Denae (new)

Denae Vampire would work for me too, since I tend to avoid the sun anyway.


message 31: by karen (new)

karen but that really cuts the day in half. i would need the whole 24 hour period to get through it all...


message 32: by Denae (new)

Denae hmm, good point


message 33: by Shannon (new)

Shannon HAHA! I totally hear you on negative book reviews...I have read some that scare me from certain books...when I later find when I read them- I love them- So I try not to read negative reviews unless I hate the book in the first few chapters- No loss!

But honestly every book has negative reviews- If I connect with the lead character I am ALL in. I mean no book can fit everyone's idea of perfect- and if twilight were written better it would kind of be perfect- I mean the two leadslive happily ever after... Yet no one is happy when it's happily ever after and then when it's not everyone is mad too,LOL!
I just enjoy being steeped in another world and being taken away. As long as the book seems to follow what the character would do- and they grow and learn- I am all in!


message 34: by karen (new)

karen yeah, i try to avoid reading reviews when i am actually reading the book. if i read them far enough in advance, i forget them and am safe!
