Warm Bodies

Warm Bodies By Isaac Marion

Watching the movie actually got me interested in this book. I was curious how different the book is vs the movie.  I have an irrational fear of zombies so it sat on my shelf for awhile. I recently felt like its something I could handle. The overall story was rather interesting and I am actually happy that I waited so long. I was trying to remember the movie and couldn't so I stopped trying and just focused on the book. However this book has a huge flaw or downside for me. There are WAY to many F words. I found it hard to believe that these zombies couldn't talk well or even remember their name but could remember and and speak the word with no problems. I also found out that this is actually book 1 of a series. But I cant sit through another book that has that many F words.

Dead Mountain

Dead Mountain The Untold True Story of the Dyatlov Pass Incident BY: Donnie Eichar.

This book was AMAZING. I have been fascinated with this mystery since I had learned about it several years ago. So naturally when I found this book  I bought it immediately and was excited to read it. It did not disappoint.  The author tells of when he first learned about this mystery and how it fascinated him to the point of connecting with people surrounding this mystery. Friends and family members of the 9 hikers who mysteriously died during a mountaineering expedition in 1959, as well as the only surviving member of this fated group. I honestly was not sure  if this book was going to help answer some of my questions about this mystery; let alone the giant question that has loomed and plagued people since. "What really happened to those hikers and why/how did they die. " Not only did I have all my questions answered. But I felt that he was able help draw the picture. I feel like I have gotten to know these hikers through this author.
