#ZombieWeek #Review of Warm Bodies by @isaacinspace with #Giveaway

Now a major motion picture from Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the blockbuster Twilight series and the upcoming movie Divergent, starring Academy Award Nominee John Malkovich, Nicholas Hoult, and Teresa Palmer and directed by Jonathan Levine.

R is having a no-life crisis--he is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he is a little different from his fellow Dead. He may occasionally eat people, but he’d rather be riding abandoned airport escalators, listening to Sinatra in the cozy 747 he calls home, or collecting souvenirs from the ruins of civilization.

And then he meets a girl.

First as his captive, then his reluctant guest, Julie is a blast of living color in R’s gray landscape, and something inside him begins to bloom. He doesn't want to eat this girl--although she looks delicious--he wants to protect her. But their unlikely bond will cause ripples they can’t imagine, and their hopeless world won’t change without a fight.

Biography

I've written a few books, but most of them are terrible. Warm Bodies is the only one so far that's worth your time. I'm about to turn 30. I'm 6'3. White. Left handed. Mildly bearded. I write strange stories about strange events, often from the perspectives of strange things. I apologize in advance for any injury or inconvenience.

My Review


Although I did like this book. I think it could have been better.  The Zombie Sex SO didn't need to be in this!!!!!  I can't express that enough!  I loved how the Bonies had to teach the kid zombies how to well be zombies.  So each zombie was married off and given kids to look after.  Which was a little weird.  But not completely out there.  I really liked how they did the story in this one.  Im going to do a spoiler so run!  




Ok so I really loved how they changed R back to human in this and how they ended it.  Although the movie I liked that they redeemed her dad vs. him dying in the book.  I also loved how they did the kiss and the virus.  It made it so much better!

I never managed to watch the movie from the beginning, I always end up watching the last 30 minutes.

I thought this movie looked horrid and I was thinking OMG way to try to sponge off of Twilight, but then I decided to actually pay attention to the trailer and became intrigued. I watched the movie and read the book and just fell IN LOVE with both. :)
