Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion
4.0
I am afraid of zombies, but for some reason, I can't stop watching TV shows or reading books that involve them. When I read this book's description I knew that I had to get my hands on it.
As soon as I started reading it, I could hardly put Warm Bodies down; I was even reading it in bed before sleeping, which is something I never do when reading books teeming with zombies.
This book was very fast paced (without being all action) and enjoyable. The very basic concept is so original and fresh. I've never read anything from a zombie's POV, and Isaac Marion has done a wonderful job of building this world and weaving the characters in such a way that you want to finish the book in one sitting.
Now, I did have some problems towards the end, style wise, things were a little muddled and confusing, but still, overall, an excellent book and I hope the upcoming movie will be just as much of a joy.
PS - I was a big fan of the pictures from Gray's Anatomy inserted at the beginning of each chapter.
