pickIgnoring the fact I read the series in the wrong order due to not being able go get a copy of the first book until last, this was a great novel. It portrays the first RE game so well and I loved the puzzles and action, though I do wish the fight scenes were more detailed. I loved Jill as usual, she's so brave and badass. 4/5 🌟
pickAn original novel in the Resident Evil universe. Like the others this one was action packed and full of Umbrella's monsterous creations. This is actually book 2 in the series so it's set before RE2 or the novelisation City of the Dead. The characters were fun and well fleshed out, I especially liked Rebecca, she's young but smart and optimistic. As usual the epilogue ends with the mysterious Trent, so I'd reccomend reading the series in order...
pickAnother good addition to the Resident Evil book series, this one follows RE3 with kickass Jill Valentine and humorous Carlos Oliveira suriving Raccoon City. It was a fun action filled novelisation of the game with some differences. I'd say the pacing of this one felt slower compared to the other books. I liked Nemesis and the mulitiple fights against it, and the other monsters too. This book was definitely brutal. The ending was good too!
pick'Underworld' was a fun addition to the Resident Evil book series, it follows after the events of the previous book (or RE2). This story is a completely new addition to the RE story, but it was fun and had all the same elements as before; action packed fights, messed up monsters and some funny one liners. The character interactions were fun and enjoyable to see, and made the characters more human with their feelings. Fast paced and good ending!
pickThis was a great novelisation of the Resident Evil 2 game, the plot was very similar and I liked the writing style, it's simple yet effective with enough description to know what's going on, but may be confusing to those who don't know the game well. The characters and their interactions felt the same, apart from Ada and her soft POV and her guilt. Though I liked this secret side of her, it didn't quite feel right. Overall a fast paced read!
Pan on a show after 1 episode! Yoooooo the Resident Evil Netflix series is painful 🤣
I‘m replacing it with the new season of Los Espookys for my #scarathlon watchlist. I was going to watch it anyway, may as well earn points. 👻
My son and his friend are playing Resident Evil on PlayStation VR and it‘s terrifying/hilarious watching them jump and shriek 🤣!! Next….scary movies!! #halloween
What‘s everyone reading this weekend? These are the ones I‘ve read so far, I‘m in one of those can‘t stop, won‘t stop reading weekends #bookwormproblems #reading #romance #suspense #videogames #graphicnovels #weekendreads
1. I remember reading the Resident Evil book series back in the 90s. They were actually pretty good, better than the movies that came later.
2. No, not if they're done by professional writers.
3. Blinx The Time Sweeper. It's an obscure XBox game from the early 2000s that I played obsessively for about 3 months. Fun sci-fi story about time travel and fixing glitches in time.

Had the grandson here for a sleepover tonight so not much reading was done for the last few hours! I did manage to sneak in one of my favourite vampire/werewolf movies while he was on his iPad so that‘s at least 6pts for #TeamSlaughter in the #Scarathlon2020 I‘m now in my library getting some #audiojournaling done which should take me to the end of ADOW & more points. Oh, plus this was #Gothtober prompt of #VampireFilmOrTV. Is that extra pts?
