I decided to read this book, because zombies seem to be becoming a popular theme for books, so I wanted to see if they were any good. I found that this book exceeded my expectations and I would suggest other people to read it. There is romance, action, and comedy provided in this book and some really good illustrations.
My mom told me to read this book which surprised me because it's about zombies! But she loved it because she's a fan of the author-he has a mystery sereis too that's pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI love "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" as well as this prequel! The illustrations and their accompanying captions are my favorite part. If you liked this one, I recommend "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" by Seth Grahame-Smith (author of "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies"); it's a similar type of humor but with a fresh idea.
