'The Dead' is a youth novel written by Charlie Higson. I found this book in my grandnephew's old bedroom after he moved. This is a zombie story that covers the gambit of rich and poor. It is a story of adult zombies attacking kids after becoming infected. This is a story that Charlie Higson shows and tells how youth can overcome diversity in many ways. To me the scenes depicted are quite graphic at times. You can see the similarities to a television program known as 'The Living Dead' except with kids in the lead. It is a quick read and at times quite intriguing.

Shelter of Hope
At times I am a reader of the Harlequin romance story. They are not always just about love and sex. There are a lot of them that are purely very good family stories like 'Shelter of Hope New Friends Street written by Lyn Cote. This is the story of Marc Chambers and Rosa Santos and how they help each other in many ways. The main plot of this story is in how a community can come together to help one of its own.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Countdown to Pearl Harbor: The Twelve Days To The Attack
Countdown to Pearl Harbor: The Twelve Days To The Attack by Steve Twomey I really wasn’t expecting much of this read; I grabbed it while I was at Pearl Harbor because how could I not get a book while I was there?
