A review by ruthee
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen, Seth Grahame-Smith

Did not finish book. Stopped at 36%.
I was so looking forward to this, but it was a complete let down. 

How could it be any more boring! I mean, there are zombies, but no real zombie action. They felt too much in the background to the story to add anything, either excitement or humour. 

The rewrite of the characters made them so unpleasant, that I became disinterested in them and their fates. 

And the pejorative/derogatory terms, fat shaming, and verbally abusive relationships really detracted from, and took me out of, the story. And prefacing the character of a 15 year girl as a ‘temptress’ was just gross. 

The narrator (Katherine Kellgren) was very good and probably the only reason I got as far into it as I did.
