Practice Diction Analysis. The Mezzanine by Nicholson Baker

The diction in Nicholson Baker's The Mezzanine is controlled and refined yet it is also business like and precisely figurative. The scenery described is radiant and flowery place yet a bustling hubcap of many different people engrossed in their own business.

World War Z is a MUST for Zombie people

THIS BOOK IS SO FREAKING AMAZING well if you like anything zombie you'll find its amazing... The book is set in post zombie apocalypse era, well at least while its dwindling down. Its told by a reporter or reporters (it doesn't really say) and it interviews people who experienced or had to do with the events that happened from the beginning to the end of the war. And the detail is simply astonishing!  Max Brooks really did think of everything when he wrote this because everything that happens in this book seems like it could happen in real life! If you are a zombie enthusiast like me and have read  the zombie survival guide you can not afford to not read this book!!!

Dexter

So I started reading Dark Dreaming Dexter Which is a novel by Jeff Lindsay and I have to admit its a pretty good read. Well the only problem for me is that whenever I start reading something that has been made into a film I always get side tracked and watch the film first. Dexter is a 6 season show based on this 288 page book and its a really good TV series. I found it really hard to concentrate on the book when I was always watching the TV show instead... I'm finally finished with it though and if you liked the movie The Silence of the Lambs you'll like this book. It Explores the mind of someone who is deranged.
