pickI love how Jonathan Maberry builds complex worlds in his stories that cross over into other series, a la Stephen King. This series pulls in characters from his Rot and Ruin series, as well as his Joe Ledger books. It‘s also clearly the prequel to the Rot and Ruin series, providing the backstory for the genesis of the virus. It‘s unique and science-based, which I like. An action-packed, quasi-plausible zombie apocalypse! What‘s not to like? 🧟♀️
pickActual doctor walks reader through the great unknown fictional apocalyptic event: Zombies. Wow! So science is explained on the level of potential infections (of actual body parts!). With concurrent UN documentation, it felt more authentic than your straight up ‘zombie!‘ Because it had science. A+ (my biology grade in Zombiology if taken in high school). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was recently recommended to me but it might be too scary for me 🫣😅

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.
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
pickI finally found the motivation to begin my reading journey for the year in this delightfully unexpected little book. The writing style was unique and it truly felt like a relic from another world plagued by a terrible calamity. The themes of disease and the struggle to determine cause and cure are accentuated by the brutal imagery of the zombies being autopsied while still “alive.“
pick21/100 Book 4 in the Dan Shamble, Zombie P.I. series. I don't think this was my favorite of the series, but it was still a lot of fun. As usual, Chambeaux has several seemingly unrelated cases, that come together in the end. An opera singing Ogre has his voice stolen, a gang of garden gnomes are on a robbery spree, a wannabe junior mad scientist has been kicked out of his secret lair by his landlord, two weather wizards are fighting ⬇️⬇️
panI don‘t even know how and where to begin to review this book. It‘s about a world inhabited by zombies who thrive on corn ?!
