Manifest Destiny: Flora & Fauna by Chris Dingess, Matthew Roberts, and Owen Gieni, 128 pages
The Comics and Cocktails book club I'm in read this for November. Imagine if Lewis and Clark's mission to explore the Louisiana Territory was really a cover to look for and wipe out monsters. This was a superbly done graphic novel.

Lio is one of the funniest and most twisted comics out there.

Dr. Mutter's Marvels by Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz, 371 pages
A really interesting read that features a doctor who changed the face of plastic surgery in the 1800s, and helped introduce the use of ether in surgery. All in all, a good read, especially for a nonfiction book.

Game of Queens by India Edghill, 386 pages
I love historical fiction that is religious based, and this retelling of Esther was outstanding.
Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie, 200 pages
My daughter had told me that in the original book, Peter Pan killed Lost Boys and I had to read for myself. Definitely different from the Disney Peter Pan I grew up with. A very good read, though I did find Peter very irritating in his cockiness and selfishness.

Interesting to see how Garfield has changed since the beginning.

White Trash Zombie Gone Wild Volume 5 by Diana Rowland, 325 pages
I totally love these books and my husband does to. The last book left both of us mad and upset, but this one totally redeemed itself. This is one of the best zombie series I've ever read, not too bloody or graphic, and a real twist on the zombie genre.
