Death & The Zombie Apocalypse Review

4.5/5 ☆☆☆☆


After losing Cage in Michigan

Rachel doesn't know if he's alive,or undead 

and although the odds of him still being alive in a building overrun with zombies 

Rachel's refuses to leave him without knowing for sure.

The group fights it's way through a horde of zombies only to realize that the undead 

are not the only enemy they must face. 

Desperate to reach the safe zone in at Ford Field 

they come up against dangers in the form of dangerous gangs, sleazy men, and their dwindling supplies.

Surviving this new world is becoming more and more impossible 

with little food or water and no shelter safe enough to sleep more than just a night.

With bullets and zombies constantly chasing after them and the lights soon to go out in certain areas of what's left of America the future of  group doesn't seem to be getting any brighter. 

(*sigh* bad pun not intended)

***

Okay so this thing between Adam and Rachel has to STOP.!!!

Cage has to nip that in the bud ASAP.!!!

Adam is no good for her in my opinion and I feel like he's being very selfish here.

He knows Cage and Rachel are together 

He knows that Cage is head over heels for the girl
but he can't see past his own selfish wants. 

While Adam encourages her to take revenge 

Cage attempts to steer her down a different path knowing the kind of damage it'll have on her

Plus this is the end of the world.!

people are trying ti survive the NIGHT.! 

There is no space for messy love triangles and stealing someone else's girlfriend. 

Adam has to depend on everyone in this group including Cage to keep each other alive

messing up his relationship with Rachel is not good for them or the rest of the group. 

I know this sounds mean but I hope Adam gets bit by a Zomb or something... Anything
 just Puh-Hu-Leeze do NOT mess with my OTP Chelsea

[Rachel + Cage = Rage??]

This book is available on amazon for $3.99 or you can read it for free with kindle unlimited on your smart phone, tablet, or computer.

Love & The Zombie Apocalypse Review

4/5☆☆☆☆

All Rachel Cole wanted was to get her little sister away from their horrible foster home,

Even if it was only for a few weeks, she was glad to have Morgan away at science camp,

where she would be safe from the beatings of their foster dad. 

Everything was as good as it could get for her, knowing that her sister would be safe

and having fun with other kids her own age. 

If only she had known how incredibly dangerous things where about to get for the both of them.

The dead are rising and attacking the living.

All it takes is ONE bite.

One bite and you're infected.

Once you're infected it's not long before you die and become one of the undead. 

It doesn't take long for Rachel to realize that in order to stay alive you have to fight back. 

With a bat and determination as her only weapon Rachel is on a mission to get 

to Michigan and rescue Morgan.

On her way she meets a few survivors who decide to help her

and that would be great if one of them weren't 

Cage Vincent, the local high schools golden boy.

Their attraction towards each other is undeniable, but 

The end of the world is hardly the time for falling in love.

Especially not when she has to be focused on saving her sister.

If it isn't already to late.

***

Here we have a Badass bat-swinging zombie-killing heroine

who knows how to take care of herself instead of hiding out in someones closet

till help arrives.

Rachel is smart, strong, and determined

but so is Cage, who despite all that he is going through is still determined to 

have Rachel by his side and help her find her sister. 

The book also tells  the stories of  other characters 

and what they've all been through up until they all meet up together 

which I fell is very import, because it helps us all understand the characters better and allows us to see how much they have grown or changed since their first encounter with the virus. 

If you are a fan of Love & Decay like I am you will definitely enjoy this book.

You can get it on Amazon for $2.99 Or you can read it for free with Kindle Unlimited  on your tablet, computer or smart phone like I did.

Uglies Review

4/5☆☆☆☆

In a world where everyone gets to become pretty at the age of sixteen,

where everyone undergoes surgery to become the ideal image of beauty

and no one - except those who are underage - has to deal with 

the harshness of being ugly, 

how could anything possibly go wrong?

Tally Youngblood can not wait until her sixteenth birthday to finally have the operation
 so that she can be with her friend Perish in New Pretty Town
where all the new pretties live. 

Where everyone has big eyes, plump lips and high cheek bones and perfect skin. 

In New Pretty Town everyone's only job is to have fun.

It's been Tally's dream for as long as she can remember 

and in only a few weeks she'll be there partying with all her old friends
who have already gotten the operation.

All she has to do is keep out of trouble for a few more weeks
and she and Perish - her best friend - will be together again. 

Except Tally's new friend, Shay, doesn't want to become pretty.

She's convinced that the operation takes away more than just your ugly features.

Days before their birthday Shay decides to runaway

and take her chances outside the city to live
among other uglies who, like her, refuses to be made pretty.

When Tally is taken to New Pretty Town for her operation
she's exposed to a very ugly side of the pretties
working in special circumstances and  is given an ultimatum:
Find Shay and turn her and the other runaways in,
or stay ugly forever.

***

This book really shows how obsessed society is with looking a certain way.
It shows how cruel we can be to one another just because someone simply looks or acts different.
We give each other nicknames that point out our flaws just like the characters in the book
for example: Stick, Squint, Nose etc.
We make ourselves believe we are nothing because we are "ugly"
and most of us would risk our lives by going under the knife
and go through a massive surgery just to become "pretty",
to become accepted, without fully understanding
that we are just being brainwashed into thinking a certain way.
Being tricked into thinking that big eyes, a thin nose and full lips and a certain height
is what makes a person pretty.

I've read a few reviews before finally reading this book
and a few of the people who wrote them were upset because they
felt that this type of society is unbelievable, but I disagree.
 If you pay attention you can see how society judges people who look different
and they're telling people they have to look a certain way to be beautiful
and there are many people out there who would do anything
just to become "pretty".

Maybe if more of those people can read this book
or books similar to this they can see how wrong they are
and change some of their minds.

Origins (Zombie Games #1) Review

 2.5/5   ☆☆

The only reason why this book got two and a half stars is
because the main character, Cassie Wild, actually knew how to defend herself
 and isn't a pathetic child how needs a guy to protect her every two seconds.

 She's brave,
bold,
smart,

She's a black belt
and daddy taught her how to use a gun!

   

The book was was okay.
It wasn't a complete loss. I liked it enough to not gag.

 It was an easy read and it is definitely the type of book you read
if you just want to sit back and relax. 

The story line isn't too complicated and it won't give you a major headache
and the fighting scenes aren't so graphic that they will give you nightmares
 if you decided to read this before bed.

The lack of zombie activity seriously made me want to beat the crap out of the book
but that's a big no, no since I was reading it my nook
and I kind of love my nook.
Usually at the beginning of a zombie apocalypse the world is
kind of overruned by hungry and vicious zombies not these lameos.
I was expecting a lot more chaos than this.
[[Yeah, I said lameos]]

I was also really looking forward to the romance between Cassie and Bryce 

but it got really annoying with Eva (the local queen bitch) throwing herself

 at him every two seconds and I hardy doubt that any guy is as dumb

 as he is to not understand what is going on. 

One minute he's all "I really like you blah blah blah"
to Cassie and the next he's letting the little trap hang all over him

and Cassie is trying very hard not to just kill Eva herself.
Seriously the girl has more self control then I do because if that was my guy
Eva would be taking a few lessons on
personal space...

Then there is this random solider who only knew Cassie for like five seconds

 and he's obsessed with keeping her safe

-as if she wasn't capable of doing it herself. 

 I swear when I get to the next book, if I find myself reading about
another obsessed guy bending over backwards to protect Cassie
because she is a girl or because she is cute,

even though she can pretty much take on half the people in her group,

 I am going to go on a craze rant about how completely idiotic and pointless
 all the male characters in this book are and not even bother to continue reading
 the series and just

           

I have read better zombie novel but when it comes to a series
you can't always judge it by only the first book
so hopefully the next books will be filled with a lot more action.
This is after all the end of the world
.... right?

The First days (as the world dies) Review

5/5  ☆☆☆☆☆

Another amazing Zombie Book !

The First Days is the first book in the As the world dies trilogy.

 Here we have Katie and Jenni - two women thrown together in this new world of death and mayhem.

Jenni watched her abusive husband eat her children 

and stood in horror as she watched them both die and came back to life.

 No, not life.

 Whatever they were they weren't living.

 They were vicious creatures with an intense hunger for human flesh and their main course was their own mother and wife. 

Katie was attacked on her way to work by a man who had his guts hanging out, but the real trauma for her was when she fled home only to witness that her beautiful wife had turned and was savagely attacking their mailman. 

Together these two completely different women develop a strong bond.

They do everything  they can to survive in this new world and soon find out that although they would do anything to have their old lives back, where everyone they love is still alive, they were

Made for this world.

 Jenni is pretty great with a rifle and a bit trigger happy. 

Katie too seems to have adapted to this new world doing all that she can to survive and protect her new home, and yea she's also handy with a gun. 

In this story you'll meet a bunch of characters each with different personalities and each struggling in their own way to over come the losses they have all suffered.

Together our survivors learn to accept new friendship, love, tragedy, and all the complications that comes along with the end of the world.

     

***

Yes! Slow clap it out for Rhiannon Frater pleeease. 

This book is fan-freaking-tabulous!

Seriously there is no way this book could disappoint you. 

I mean I waaassss hoping for a three way romance between - 

well you'll see when you read it .

Tomorrow Land Review

4/5 ☆☆☆☆

Holy futuristic zombie apocalypse! 

Secret government agents

Flesh eating zombies

Betrayal 

Heartache

Addiction

Cybernetic implants

Gladiators

Love

&

a boatload of innocent children

This trip through futuristic zombie land will be a walk in the park,

 or rather a walk to Disneyland.

With an important code saved locked away in her head 

Peyton and Chase make their way across dangerous territories

with a group of orphaned children to Disneyland where Peyton's 

father awaits her arrival.

After being locked underground for four years she is on a mission to save what is 

left of the human race, but can she make it in time before the cybernetic implants,

created by her own father, fails and her body starts breaks down?

Will traveling with Chase, her former love, complicate her mission?

and how can she travel to Disneyland, fend off zombies and protect a group of mostly children safe from a fate worse than death while her only capable companion is constantly putting them in danger?

….

Sometimes finding a good Zombie Apocalypse book is hard to come by

because after a while they all start to sound the same, but I can say for sure that this book was like nothing I have ever read before.

The back and forth between chapters, going from the present to the past repeatedly, was extremely frustrating, but by the time I got to the end of the story I could not have imagined this book being written any other way.

This book was absolutely fantastic!

Matched Review

3/5 ☆☆☆

Only a few paragraphs into Matched by Ally Condie 

I got really excited about the story.

 I am great a multitasking and I am always either cleaning

or cooking while I am reading,

but WOW

I was so absorbed by this book that I suddenly found myself in my bed wrapped up in a blanket unwilling to separate myself from this story.

Unfortunately though by the time I got to chapter eight I was pretty much 

half dead due to boredom 

But I pushed through it and realized that it wasn't that bad.

The story is a bit slow paced *eyeroll*

 but other than that it's OKAY. 

I wish there was a bit more drama in the story and that Cassia wasn't so 

dang indecisive about who she wanted to be with

but who knows maybe the next book will be better.

I am really upset though.

I honestly thought that this book would be more than what it was

 but all of that put aside the story is really good.  

Also if you enjoy this book or have already read it then you might also be interested in reading Delirium by Lauren Oliver, which I also expected more from but do not let my slight dissatisfaction keep you from reading this book. After all there is a reason I gave this book 3 stars.

**************************************************************************

ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS

Cassia has always trusted the society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate… until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.

The society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

PODs Review

3/5 ☆☆☆

                                                        

ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS

Seventeen-year-old Eva is a chosen one. Chosen to live, while others meet a swift and painful death from an incurable virus so lethal, a person is dead within days of symptoms emerging. In the POD system, a series of underground habitats built by the government, she waits with the other chosen for the deadly virus to claim those above. Separated from family and friends, it's in the PODs she meets David. And while true love might not conquer all, it's a balm for the broken soul. 

After a year, scientists believe the population has died, and without living hosts, so has the virus. That's the theory, anyway. But when the PODs are opened, survivors find the surface holds a vicious secret. The virus mutated, infecting those left top-side and creating... monsters. 

Eva and David hide from the infected in the abandoned PODs. Together they try to build a life--a new beginning. But the infected follow and are relentless in their attacks. Leaving Eva and David to fight for survival, and pray for a cure.

*******************************************************************************************

NAT'S REVIEW

Usually I like my Zombie apocaplyse novels to have a bit more ... Oh I don't know … Zombies in it! But this was still a good read. The story had a pretty interesting start but by the time I got to the middle of the book I was dying for some undead villains to arrive.

The romance between Eva and David was TO-DIE-FOR!

No really! Those two were beyond head over heels for each other. The fight they put up to be together is what kept me going for the first half of the book. Well, that and Eva being a total bad ass!

Go head and tell Eva she doesn't need a weapon in a post zombie apocalyptic world because that is what the men are there for and see if doesn't knock your rotting head of your shoulders with a bat!

Anyway if you need a book to read to pass the time on that long train ride home or something else to do when you should be doing your already late homework assignment you should really give PODs a shot.
