    Finished up Lucky Man by Michael J. Fox...
    Deciding what to read next...
    The Case of the Frozen Addicts, Under the Dome, or World War Z (although this probably will make my zombie dreams worse...)
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    I've thought about picking it up a bunch of times, but I am really over the zombie thing. They are everywhere. I still watch "The Walking Dead" even though it is a piece of crap now. I mainly just watch it to see how bad it is.

    "David Copperfield" by Charles Dickens

    Why, oh why haven't I been reading Dickens all these years? This is truly a wonderful book and I'm only about 240 pages in. Fantastic. A+ recommendation.

    I agree. I didn't read Dickens until I was at least 30. I was shocked - who knew? David Copperfield is fab and Great Expectations is amazing, too.
