Book of the Month - June

I read a really good book last weekend (in the evenings) called One Second After. It's basically a fictional account of a small North Carolina town after the United States is struck by an EMP (Electro-Magnetic Pulse) that wipes out all electronics.


Think cars, lights, cell phones, electric stoves, computers, etc. The author William Forstchen really did his research right down to the nitty-gritty details. The storyline itself is really creepy (because it is dead-on and could happen). Mr. Forstchen really knows how to wrench your gut with emotion. I found myself crying more then once while reading this book.

If you're looking for something to read on vacation (or anytime really), I highly recommend this book. Just make sure that you keep a box of tissues handy because you'll need them!
