Omg....British zombies......just....just yes
-2015

I’m going to add a little blurb for each book to quickly remind me what each one was about. This one was: B’s backstory, lots of racism, and the outbreak. 

**Spoilers in review!!**

     Absolutely mortified that that’s the only review I left when I first read this. I didn’t get ANYTHING else from it?? Jeez.
     I wanted to read this again to get back into zombie books and I remember Darren Shan being one of my all time favorite authors in middle school.
I was expecting a fun, easy to get through zombie book, but this is honestly pretty difficult to get through with just how intense and often the racism is. And the fact that B just refuses to realize that they are indeed racist. It gets very annoying very fast. 
I’m also a little sad with how long it takes to get to actual zombie time. I get that it was needed because the story and characters needed to be set up, I was still frustrated by it though.
     However, I absolutely loved when the zombies finally did arrive. The different types of panic shown, the gore described, the transformations, it was all fantastic. I also love that it was all a set up, it puts a slightly different spin on a genre that can get a bit overdone. Tyler’s death is devastating and I don’t think B’s reaction makes up for it. I really wish they could’ve had that realization BEFORE murdering someone. 
     The ending is definitely a shock and makes me wonder what’s going to happen next. I’m just not ready for any more of B’s dad, so I really hope that gets handled quickly but I honestly don’t have high hopes. 

I will continue to read this series even though I’m obviously not enjoying it as much as I did when I was younger. I’m still curious as to where the story goes.
