Day 11: Dawn of the Dead
In this book an illness kills all adults except for a few who are now crazy and hungry. Only children under 14 are not affected and a group of them in London have banded together and are seeking a safe place to hide.
It took a few chapters to really hook me, but once it did I couldn't put it down! Can't wait to see what the rest of the series has in store!

(Reading so slow this year, not sure how I'm going to make my goal 😅)
pickThe Circumstantial Enemy by John R. Bell is a wonderful historical fiction novel set in Croatia during WWII. Great cast of characters to both live and hate. The story is loosely based on the author's father-in-law's war experience. A must read for all WWII buffs.
pickThis was so good. Seth (10) and I just finished it - he‘s not read a post-apocalypse story before and he loved it as did I. I would give a warning if reading with children - it is very gory and brutal and also very scary for some kids in a variety of ways. Seth doesn‘t tend to be scared by “classic” scary stuff hence I was happy to read him it, but some may not cope so well. Lots of swearing too! We‘re diving straight into The Dead #raisingreaders
pickWhat happens when all the grown ups turn into zombies and the kids have to look after themselves? Charlie Higson will tell you! What an excellent book. I was hooked on this and will be reading the rest of the series. It's classed as a YA book but in all honestly, at 35 years of age I was scared!
pickGritty, dark natured, hopeful and revealing of human nature. The characters all felt well developed and authentic. The various view points and narration of characters had me gripped throughout. A good read!
Anybody read this series? It's got lots of positives from what I've found. Thrilled to start reading.
And onto another book, I used to love the young bond series and I'm sure I'll love this!
