And as a way to improve my mind and to break away from television a bit, I've pinned a reading challenge from Pop Sugar. I am planning on creating a page where I can keep track of the books that I've read and mark them off.
So far, I've read a trilogy! It was pretty amazing! I read the Newsflesh Trilogy by Mira Grant! They were exciting, twisty, and nerve wracking! It's funny that I don't like watching scary movies, but I LOVE scary books! There was one night that I was so freaked out that when the cat scratched to get into the house, I could barely open the door because Holy Nighttime! And I immediately closed and locked the door and ran upstairs and sat with my back to the wall! It is all kinds of ridiculous, but I love books that make me feel that way.
It took me a bit to get into the first book, Feed, just because I originally tried to listen to the audio book but I wasn't a fan of the reading. Nothing personal against the girl behind the voice, it just wasn't for me. But once I got started, I devoured all three of the books! They were amazing and shocking and seemed a lot more plausible than other Zombie type books that I've encountered. She definitely did her research! I really felt like the story behind the outbreak was believable. (Not that it's always necessary, but it is nice!) And Mira Grant is an amazing writer!
I highly recommend this trilogy! Especially if you are in to zombie novels!
