Movie Prep: Annihilation (Southern Reach #1) by Jeff VanderMeer
Movie Prep: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
For the longest time you could only have Pride and Prejudice OR zombies, but the release of the trailer for the film adaptation of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies reminded me that now I can have both!

With The Maze Runner on my “to read” list for a while now, the release of the trailer for the upcoming film adaptation was all the push I needed to finally crack the book open. Turns out I probably could have just waited for the movie.
