Michele Grimaldi thegrim — Made me want to pack my suitcase and hop on the airplane for Australia! I always enjoy the chance to travel along with Bryson in my mind. Just the right amount of detail to make you feel a part of the literary journey while aspiring to someday make the geographical trip as well.

Kena Henley _bird — I've loved the Morganville vampire series since the first few chapters of the very first book. It's such a refreshing plot line and every time I grow to love the characters even more. What I also like about it is that the characters don't grow old. They are still able to make me life, cringe, cry, and get angry with. They are all so lovable. And there's also not just one character that the audience follows but there are so many great supporting characters. It's fun to see Claire getting closer to the different people and how relationships change. In this book, it was interesting to see the foursome outside of the confines of Morganville as they are on a road trip to Dallas for a recording session for Michael. The rednecks they meet on the way, the wise old ladies, and the vampire zombies make the trip a normal everyday Morganville encounter for the group who just wants a relaxing trip. It's also difficult for them to cope being out of a situation that doesn't all know vampires exist so they have to hide the blood and the weapons from the humans prying eyes. The book is quintessential M-ville book. Claire and Shane grow closer. Michael and Eve grow closer. Claire grows closer to Oliver. Oliver still hates everyone. But it's that security in the midst of all the chaos that make it such a good series. I was a little miffed at Claire's sudden ability to master the art of archery after only 20 minutes. (I took it in high school gym and could barely hit the target if it were five inches in front of me, after 2 months. And I consider myself to be on par with Claire's lack of coordination.) And another thing, you would think that if you had to encounter killer vampires on a daily basis, you'd be taking some serious kung fu lessons so you could easily handle yourself in a fight. I would have mastered the sword and all other hand to hand combat. But, I look forward to the next book and hopefully get to see more of Myrnin and Claire. (I love the old coot.) And maybe less of Claire's annoying and meddlesome parents. I would suggest this book to those looking for a great vampire YA series.

Born to Italian Immigrants, Zamperini's childhood was filled with crazy mischief, lots of love from his family, and a desire to be fast. As the world dove into WWII, Louis left the track behind and joined the air force. Unbroken tells his story. A story of survival, brotherhood and friendship, faith, resilience, forgiveness, patriotism, and redemption. This book is a must read for all. I read in disbelief and horror at times and joy and triumph in others. As a history major I have read plenty of books on WWII. However, I don't know that I ever fully comprehended a Prisoner of War's journey in a POW camp held by the Japanese. I am grateful that those who lived in unspeakable situations can tell their stories and that we can learn from them. As the world is increasingly becoming a scarier and more frightening place, it is books like these that can help us become better human beings and fight for the rights of all men.

Jac Harries _ac_arries — A great book about how the first world war and technology killed romance, art, and created dadaism.
