Book Nerds Across America

 Follow Friday is hosted by parajunkee.com and is a great way to discover new blogs! Here's this week's question: Q. What are you doing to prepare for an upcoming zombie apocalypse and/or the return of Mel Gibson to the silver screen? (Both of which could be terrifying.)
Hmm. Well, first of all, I'd gather up all my hurricane supplies -- flashlights, batteries, Doritos and beverages. And books of course. Anything by Carrie Ryan. But maybe not Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Then I would re-watch Shaun of the Dead. Because I feel that everything I need to know about surviving the Zombie Apocalypse could be learned from that fantastic feature film.  ~Flo

I am not a big fan of movie theaters.  They are VERY scary to me in their own right.  I will brave the elements for Rob Pattinson, Harry Potter, Ryan Phillippe and a very select group of others.  Mel Gibson CERTAINLY does not meet the criteria.  He will not even make the cut for my Netflix selections. 

As for the zombie apocalypse....I will have to make sure all of my electronics are fully charged.  Nook, phone, iPad, etc.  I wouldn't want to lose communication and the ability to read.  I would take the aforementioned essentials to my gym to hang out until it is safe to return home.  They have a nice cafe where I could eat, I could still get my workouts in, and I could lounge by the pool and read the rest of the time.  This doesn't sound like a bad plan at all.  Maybe I will institute these precautionary measures as soon as I am finished with work this afternoon. - Jacque
