    Here’s another… and it sounds crappy. World War Z. It’s a zombie book, but it’s done as an oral history after the fact and it delves into the socioeconomic and political repercussions of the zombies. For instance Cuba becomes an economic power cause its an island and didn’t get hit nearly as hard as other placesI heard Brad Pitt’s production company picked it up to make a movie

  7. If you haven’t read The Handmaid’s Tale, you need to! Also, you should read Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh because it’s in Scottish slang and they say the c-word a lot…and I love drugs.

    Oh and anything by Jeffery Eugenides.

    And of course the TWILIGHT SAGA….DUH!
