World War Z is not about zombies...not really. It is more about humankind, about its societies, about its military, about its struggle - about its people. The book consists of stories told in retrospect by individuals who survived. They tell their stories and with it the story of the "Zombie War". T...

Everyone seems to love and adore this book but I have to admit it pretty much bored me from beginning to end. I am either burned out, have no taste at all or have lost all interest in what everyone else finds fascinating. I realize it's probably a case of #2 and I'm perfectly okay with that. If you ...

I don't go to the movies very often, because where I live is halfway up a mountain in Norway and its a long drive to the local town and nearest cinema, but this summer I was lucky enough to take a vacation in California, where cinemas are plentiful. Me and Mr Bookivorous saw several films, and in Sa...
