The Perfect Summer Read

If you are looking for a fun, escapist novel, you can't go wrong with John Scalzi's latest: the Kaiju Preservation Society. It is exactly what it sounds like, with great alternate world building, pleasing protagonists, antagonists that deserve their boos, and kaiju(!). It is the perfect summer read.

If you've ever wondered if that whole nuclear bomb explanation for Godzilla's appearance was kind of sketchy, or if Pacific Rim was a little lacking in kaiju motivation, the KPS has got you covered. You'll laugh; you might cry; you'll certainly want to know, "Where can I sign up?!"
