pick96/100 Horror isn't my usual genre of choice, but I've enjoyed the author's work on Batman, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Walter invites a group of his friends to a beautiful house on the lake, for a week to relax and reunite. Walter isn't who or what they thought. No spoilers, I liked the build up, the flash backs how each character met Walter. I don't know if the library has vol.2, but I'd be interested to see where the story goes. 4/5 ⭐
pickHuman-eating zombies.✅
Humans gone mad.✅
The world is in chaos.✅
AND ROMANCE!✅
Yes, please! 😂
Who knew I‘d love a zombie rom-com so much! This was the perfect kind of distraction I needed during the fall of our democracy.
And now I need book 2 to come out like yesterday because that ending left me 😱 🤯😱🤯😱🤯😱🤯😱🤯😱🤯😱
pickExcellent story, weird graphics. Figuring out the characters at first was confusing but now I want to read more.

pickAs most reviews state, this was the best pick for an Amazon First Read pick.
True to the Walking Dead vibe mixed with Life After Us, I'm not usually a zombie/gory kind of reader. But there was enough storyline that streamlined in between so it wasn't a turn off.
pickWhen I saw this was a First Reads choice on Amazon, I didn't even bother to see what the other choices were 😁
This was fun and gory, and fun, and different for Jeneva Rose.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫/5
One of the easiest prime first reads to ever pick..it was a no-brainer, pun intended🤣🤣🤣
This was such a fun doomsday, love story, zombie apocalypse, thriller and at times funny book wrapped up in one! Walking Dead vibes mixed with a lifetime original special…loved it!!🧟♀️❤️
pickI was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book!
Going into the book, I wasn‘t quite sure how I would like it. I love graphic novels but sci-fi is often a hit or a miss for me. This one was a hit!
I don‘t want to give away too much of the plot, since it‘s more fun if you go into it blind.

pickI think we all think about the end of the world or ourselves, if only briefly, at least once a day. We imagine how it will happen—quick, painful? With warning, time to prepare and make final rounds? We consume film, literature, and headlines that talk about it—because we love it. We think we will get the time off from work, lose our worries, lose our financial debts, our jury duties. If we lose these things, will we also lose our sense of⬇️

pick“Everybody dies, everything ends—but not now. Not now.”
This book covers the end of the world as we know it, or at least the end of humanity, and how that may come to pass. Chapters feature ways we‘ll go out like pandemics, nuclear weapons, climate change, overpopulation, war, cosmic events and more. Far from depressing, this was a fun look at the way humans have thought about the end of times over many years, through books, movies, etc.
