This one was a bit slower, more back story than action, but we're finally getting down to the meat and bones of the mystery of the plague, hybrid kids, and Gus's origins. I didn't really care for the illustration and typography style they used for "The Taxidermist," but it was a pretty interesting story. My favorite part was probably the humor and irony of the two hockey players coming back together in the middle of the apocalypse. It makes you realize how surreal that must've felt and how easily this horrible, cruel new world becomes the only thing you can remember. Only one more volume left!
Don't Panic - Megan's BookLikes
I really like books. Some favorites: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (duh), Pride & Prejudice, The Martian Chronicles, True Grit, The Idiot, Daughter of Smoke & Bone, and so on. I tend to be pretty eclectic in my reading habits. I definitely favor sci-fi & fantasy, classic literature, YA fiction, memoirs, and non-fiction (usually art-, craft-, or history- related). I might have a book hoarding problem, but that's okay. I don't mind.
