My current read is The Dog Stars by Peter Heller. About 50% into it and its keeping me entertained. Its about an outdoorsman\pilot and a survivalist pretty much forced to team up after surviving a virus outbreak using the Jefferson\Boulder County front range area as a setting.

Most of the story is centered on the Erie Airport, so anyone in the north metro would find some familiar landmarks. The whole book takes place in a dystopian Colorado, so just about everyone will be able to identify something from this book. If you enjoy hunting, fishing, shooting, and/or flying small airplanes, you will have no problem getting through this book. IMO Heller is much easier to read than Cormac McCarthy and comparatively, this book is downright upbeat and peppy compared to The Road.
