#QuotsyApr21 Day 8: #Succeed
While this story is about the post-apocalyptic world filled with the undead - the message definitely resonates.
#StaySafe, Litsy folks.

Mehso-so

This book basically picks up years after the conclusion of The Forest of Hands and Teeth. It follows Gabry and a few others as they try to survive after a Breaker attack. Along the way, Gabry begins to discover that her entire life is basically a lie.

I‘m conflicted about this book. I like the world and enjoyed the plot twists/suspense, but the love triangle was really annoying. It was hard to look past to really enjoy the story.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was infinitely better than the first, but the new MC (the daughter of the 1st book's MC) is still annoyingly indecisive and unsure. Seems to be a running trend with these books.

This is what I came out with, from my old hometown bookstore: The second book in the A Forest of Hands and Teeth series & an ARC that they had that I‘ve been wanting to read! (They have a shelf where you can pick an ARC that they have, if you buy a full priced book!)

I like this one a little more than the first one. The book is half love triangle and half zombie apocalypse. It has action in it of course, but there‘s also a girl trying to decide which boy she wants.

Reggie I love apocalypse books that incorporate human drama into a larger problem. Like on Fear the Walking Dead, it‘s not enough you have a family trying to survive the Zombie apocalypse but the family is blended and they made the older son a junkie. Lol love it. 7y

"They ripple and swell, the bodies of the Mudo, like the ocean. Like the dead-tossed waves."
-- The Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan

I love The Forest of Hands and Teeth series. It mixes my love for zombies with beautiful, yet haunting prose. I've always loved the titles to this series. I felt like deadtossedwaves was perfect for me. ???????

#allhallowsread #scaretober #scaryreads

This is my Halloween #tbr pile. I have been trying to read horror-esque books all month (not that I have gotten far this month so far) and these are some of the ones I'm tackling next! I'm doing @DeweysReadathon at the weekend which will hopefully make a dint!

Already read: Carrie, and The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein

Bookworm54 @BarbaraTheBibliophage I'm looking forward to starting it! It's bigger than I expected haha 8y

#booktober #mostanticipatedreads #spooktober

I'm looking forward to sooooo many books this month, but especially getting around to reading this one! It has been sat on my shelf for a while as the first one scared me a little and this one has some abandoned theme parks in it...

On a side note, did you know you can go airsofting in certain theme parks during seasons they are closed? 😨 Creepy!

BarbaraTheBibliophage This looks good! What is airsofting? 🎃👻 8y
Bookworm54 @BarbaraTheBibliophage it is like paintball or laser tag? But instead of paint or lasers, it's BB guns. Some people play casually and others go all out with the gear (I'm talking replica weapons and full combat gear). Tends to be capture the flag type games, though I'm not the best to explain it since it terrifies me! I just about manage the laser tag 😋 8y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Oh gotcha. That would be super creepy in an abandoned theme park! 😈 8y

It‘s never been a perfect world. It‘s never going to be. It‘s going to be hard and scary, and if you‘re lucky, wonderful and awe-inspiring. But you have to push through the bad parts to get to the good.
