This is a very good story with an unusual variety of subplots and kinds of technology.

I'm moderating a panel at FOGcon (http://fogcon.org/) that will be discussing this book. A great story so far!

I'm liking this more as I go along, either because I'm getting more into the style and themes, or because the better stories are later in the book.

This is just as good as I remembered, and just as horrifying.

I'm less into some of the stories than others, but I definitely like Alexie's writing and am looking forward to getting to his novels.

This is a book of short stories, but so far they all feature the same main character, which is interesting.

Very well done -- though we only spend about 5 pages with each character, they are all given detailed stories and believable voices.

Enjoying this, both the story and the style. So far it's a coming-of-age story, but I don't know where it might be going.

This is exactly what I want from a zombie book: A well-considered, plausible look at how a disease spreads and the effect it has on the world.

This box full of bookish objects is beautiful and full of human emotions (mostly the sad ones).

Interesting collection of essays by Atwood, but on the whole, I'd rather read fiction, so I'm looking forward to the short stories at the end of this collection.
