I'm still looking forward to reading it, but I'm not expecting to be wowed. The more reviews I read, the more I’m glad I used a gift card to buy this instead of my own hard-earned cash.

I really don't know what he could have expected to do with it, or what it could be satirizing and I definitely don't like zombies. I loved your review though. Great job.

I'm reading this one for book club this month and am looking forward to it, but have some of the same reservations you mentioned in your review. Great review.

I can't believe they're doing a MOVIE of it!! Talk about even more lazy. I was never interested in the zombie version, but I’m not surprised to hear that it came across as lazy.

It starts off with heaps of zombies and then they slowly fade away, like he just couldn't be bothered anymore. Pure novelty factor, but even novelty books should be readable! Great review :) I read and reviewed this a while ago, and I agree completely about the laziness!

I thought a concept like this could either be really, really well done or just fall flat. I still would like to give this a try at some point, but I'll wait in the library queue, rather than running out to buy it.

This is the first review that I really thought was looking for the same things out of the book that I would be as well. Thanks, J.S.!

On par with much internet fan-fic, but not really publishable material. It could have been SO GOOD. But I completely agree, it seemed just too lazy.
