All depends on what you’re looking for in a book.įacebook // twitter // bloglovin // youtube However, as I mentioned above, the ideas the author had about zombies were really original so for zombie fans this might definitely be a book worth reading. If you didn’t like Twilight, I wouldn’t really recommend this book since it feels quite similar. I felt like she and Howie balanced each other well and made for some interesting conversations and character contrasts. Stella in particular had me laughing out loud on a few occasions because of her abrasiveness and just how little she cared about what others thought of her. With that being said, I did love the characters in this book. However, I couldn’t stand how closely the plot followed that of Twilight. It’s unfortunate because the author had some good ideas when it came to the source of the zombie outbreak and the way that zombies exist in the world. I didn’t know it would be exactly like Twilight except with zombies instead of vampires. When I saw that this was supposed to be a parody of Twilight, I was expecting something a little bit different. Gotta love a smart, overweight and attitudinal heroine! ( ) Sit back with this one and just have fun! I am actually going straight in for a re-listen but with a notebook close by to write down some of the zingers that Stella delivered to people she felt disdain towards.which was nearly everyone. I love zombie books and I totally enjoyed the Twilightesque parody vibe that was going on. 'Ah yes, I realise that may not have been as reassuring as it was intended to be.' We are all aware of Stella's attractive qualities but we merely wish to eat her.' 'May I remind you that this whole family is infected with the same virus as Howard and that he is the only one interested in a romantic relationship with her. 'Well not when you think about it from the point of view that he's a zombie.' My mother looked at my father with a furrowed brow. 'Are you telling me young Howard here is only interested in Stella because of her brain?'ĭad turned to look at Howie. It's just that Howard Mullin's dad was reassuring Stella's dad about her safety. Sorry lady with the blue jacket on, I didn't mean to scare you. FYI, spontaneously bursting out into hyena style laughter in the toilet paper aisle of your local supermarket results in people clutching their children close and giving you a wide berth.

It was one of the funniest books I have ever read.
