Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First and foremost, this book was FREE! With that being said, it is a great book. I laughed at all of the dialog and first person commentary, whether said out loud or internally. The primary first person thought process was hilarious and real. As for the many reviews B!+ h!ng about poor editing or spelling... this is writen as a journal and many, MANY, people are poor spellers, but also remember... This Book Is FREE! Quit complaining. Many authors are suffering through poor editors and less than steller editing. This is a great zombie book, that not only addresses the loss of community, loss of friends/family, choices and decisions (whether good or bad), but also throws in how people adjust to these changes. Some people freeze, some take charge; others crack emotionally and/or mentally, and some that capitalize on being sick and/or depraved; there are people who want to blame others, while others want to control others; there are leaders and then followers; there are characters you can't help but like and others you'd love to throw out for the zombies to feast on; but on top of it all there are those moments where we could become lost in our own thoughts, and yet those moments where a hilariously funny/sick thought might cross our minds. It's all in this story, which by the way, is a full size novel. It could be a stand alone, but would leave you wanting to know... did they all live happily ever after or what tragedy was awaiting them next. I loved the humor and my son had to know what was making his mom laugh so hard tears were streaming down my face. I would read him a clip and watch him start laughing just as hard. It's a zombie story that starts with a CDC rushed 'ooops,' in a plausible scenario. It evolves into community survival and family survival. You read about ideas for fortifications, food and ammunition concerns, and of course the what-ifs (when this happens what will we do), as well as WTF moments (Ryan Seacrest, really?!). We get to combine that with depraved humans and their need to be destructive or just an altogether mental sickness some have. Then there's that need to protect our children whether 3 years or 19 years old, they're still our babies. And of course, the love for a pet, that some of us just don't grasp, especially if it meant potentially sacrificing ourself to attempt to save a scared, hiding, useless pet. However, when you add in germaphobia, paranoia and laughable inner dialog, it can make for a very interesting twist on the now common doom and gloom, zombie apocalypse books. I'm greatful for this FREE book, because I found an author whom I might not have read otherwise. I am proud to say I am half-way through book number two, and I think the tears of crying from laughter have been even greater. And yes, my son's tears of laughter have been flowing heavily too. Read the first book for free, if it's not your cup of tea, then no loss...BUT just maybe you'll find a book that makes you laugh just as much as it makes you think what-if. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read for the fun and enjoyment of reading. To the Author: Thank you for allowing me the privilege of reading this first book free. - M.
