I'll be reading "The year of the flood" by Margaret Atwood. Nine years after I read one of my favorite book "Oryx an Crake", I realized that it was part of a trilogy O_O!

Since NY Comic-con was this weekend, I decide to pick up some comics based on reviews and recommendations. Here's what I've read so far:

Saga, both Volumes One & Two, written by Brian K. Vaughan and illustrated by Fiona Staples

Locke & Key Volume One: Welcome to Lovecraft, written by Joe Hill and illustrated by Gabriel Rodriguez

Fables Volume One: Legends in Exile, written by Bill Willingham and illustrated by Lan Media, Steve Leialoha, and Craig Hamilton

Why can't more book covers be like this?

I'm starting Mason & Dixon today, my first ever Pynchon.

Continuing with 'Locke & Key' and 'Fables' with Head Games and Animal Farm respectively:

Afterwards there's Y: The Last Man, The Deluxe Edition; Books 1 & 2. Written by Brian K. Vaughan, illustrated by Pia Guerra & José Marzán, Jr.

Hopefully these will keep me satisfied for a few weeks before the need to buy more volumes arises.
