Tags, Genres, Post Apocalyptic Supplies

I'm thinking about going back and specifying genre and possibly audience (YA, etc.) for my entries. Although this blog is mostly for me to keep track of my reading, maybe it would be helpful and make it more like a REAL review blog.

Starting to plan my vacation has gotten me in the mood to plan what would be in my EXTREME survival backpack. Thanks to Mr. Page's junior year biology class and my literary preferences I'm obsessed with the mechanics of survival in a post-apocalyptic world, so I thought it would be fun to plan what I would need to have on hand. This week I hope to get reviews up for "The Gift of Fear" and "Wilderness Survival for Dummies" and get my supply list started.
