so-soI got this one out of a little free library and have to say there is a reason with there is an offer sticker on it. This is supposed to be the story behind the dark lady of Shakespeare‘s sonetts m, but with zombies. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ The only good things in this novel are the original quotes of his plays and their usage for the dialogues in the text. I am torn between So-So and Pan.
The author uses original quotes by Shakespeare at the beginning of each chapter - sometimes they go well with the chapter, sometimes they don‘t.
pickI hadn't watched since it first came out. Had forgotten how good it was.
Favorite things:
Matt Smith as Parson Collins
I want boots and thigh holster for cosplay.
And Lizzy. Such a badass. ⚔️🎩🧟♂️

bailedThis SEEMS like it should be a story right up my alley - zombies, a groundhog‘s day scenario, and a mystery at its heart - but I just couldn‘t get through it! It‘s supposed to be short but I‘ve been trying to read it for weeks now and I‘m only at 35% 😭. It just doesn‘t seem to go anywhere. I‘ve read and enjoyed this author before, so I‘m just going to chalk it up to wrong book at the wrong time.
pickRead this one poolside. It took a minute to get into it, but ultimately I really liked it.
pickThis was enjoyable! I rooted for both R and Julie the whole time. A quick listen too!
#pop25 - a dystopian book with a happy ending
pickIt's the zombie apocalypse, but it's also a poetic allegory of grief, loss, depression, issues of memory, consumerism, probably a few things I missed. Somehow it works.
Passed it on to the Spouse and he loved it so much he already wants to read it again (and he almost never re-reads). Once I return it to the library I'm going to have to buy a copy to keep.
