Thanks to the wonderful new Evergreen Indiana system I was finally able to read Zoe’s Tale by the slightly insane John Scalzi.  I’d heard about it quite a few times already, but I’ve never been able to find it when I haphazardly remember to look for it at a bookstore.

I had to fight through the first chapter or two, probably because it was hard for me to relate to a teenage girl–since I’m the exact opposite (an old guy).  After I got used to it, the book started to really pick up.  It was well worth the read, and I will probably now read the rest of the Old Man’s War series and stalk John Scalzi until I get a restraining order.
