Just finished Crystal Lake Memories and before that, Making Friday the 13th.  Making Friday the 13th is more of a clinical approach on the productions, whereas Crystal Lake Memories is more of a personal view on the productions; both books seemed to focus primarily on Friday 1-3 but all the films are covered in pretty good details.

A vintage WW2 Cookbook by one "PRUDENCE PENNY".  It's all about dealing with food shortages and Ration Points, and how to eat Healthily.

I inherited it from my mom, and find it extremely useful in these times of tight budgets.

It's the sort of thing that made the "GREATEST GENERATION" GREAT, so it works for me.... "s"

Abominable Science!: Origins of the Yeti, Nessie, and Other Famous Cryptids
...a very good book that discusses the pseudo-science elements of cryptozoology.

...and World War Z. Finally getting to read the book. It's well done and an interesting read, but not a story per se. Really, a group of accounts (interview style) of events that unfolded during the Zombie outbreak. Interesting how the movie was turned into a narrative story taking elements from the book.

It's not a novel, but an ebook of cartoons called The edge of town volume 1.
Good stuff!
