I'm about one hundred pages into "World War Z." I'm not terribly impressed with the style of story telling or the writing, If you're looking for an incredibly well-written zombie book, I can't over-recommend "Zone One" by Colson Whitehead.

I've also just finished Franz Kafka's "Amerika." Reading this has been very educational in that I now feel that I have a very good understanding of what people mean when they say something is "Kafka-esque." It's also a pretty interesting book full of symbolism. While I didn't love it, I appreciate the way it brought forth feelings of stress and anxiety in me as the reader.
