…I just finished Into the Wild [by Jon Krakauer] last night. It was a great book. The author has an interesting way of telling the story: out of chronological order, and occasionally veering from the main story entirely to tell other interesting stories that are only tangentially related, but it worked. I was engrossed in whatever story he happened to be telling for that chapter…

Yes, I enjoyed it too. This thread may interest you: Into The Wild

Almost finished with World War Z by Max Brooks. What a unique and fascinating and genuinely terrifying read. It subverts traditional narrative form by telling the story through a series of survivor interviews, people from all walks of life, laypeople, soldiers, those from every level of government all over the world. It’s not like we’ll ever have a Zombie apocalypse but this book makes it frighteningly clear how unprepared we are for a global disaster…

Also a good read. The movie is quite different but also worth a look, I’d say.
