The hearty fellows of The Paper Street Reading Group met well tonight at Ruta Maya Coffe House in south Austin. Good conversation, better beer, some coffee, and a hot chocolate ruled the night as Jax, E-Luv, Big Perm, and Shoeless dug into Max Brooks' zombie apocalypse oral history, World War Z. Big Perm earned the Dogear Award for the most heavily annotated copy of the book, with perhaps every tenth page marked with a Post-It Note. Well done, Perm. Opinions of the book's merits ranged far and wide, with mostly positive reviews carrying the day. Early word on the planned film adaptation was a little sketchier. After the conclusion of discussion on the night's reading, the group migrated to Opal Divine's for a couple more tasty beverages and some fried tasties. E-Luv has the next pick, as soon as he decides on a proper Western yarn for the group to delve into. Stay tuned for the next book assignment for The Paper Street Reading Group. Good night.
