Tess Mayer tessmayer — I loved this! I loved Alex, the main character; the plot; the love interest and friends; the uniqueness of everything about it. Alex makes the story- she's brave, funny, spunky, and has respect for herself and is loyal to those she cares about. Perfect read. Can't wait for the next one!

Roberto Campolucci robertobordi1571 — Good short read. Makes a person wonder what they might of missed by not going away during summer vacations while in college. This was a free book in the Kindle store.

Mahmoud Nasr themahmoudnasr — Predictable of the Nicholas Sparks genre. It was a present so I felt compelled to read it but knew the outcome after the first chapter. Mind candy but not so tasty.

Wang Amber _ — The Walking Dead, a black-and-white comic book written and created by author Robert Kirkman, premiered in 2003. Since then, the series has spawned over 80 issues, 13 trade paperback collections, t-shirts, an upcoming video game adaptation, and a television series on AMC. Not bad for a comic book, something that many people believe only children should read. The comic follows the story of Rick Grimes, a police officer from rural Kentucky, who wakes from a coma (trite, I know!) to discover himself one of the few survivors of a zombie apocalypse. Chaos ensues. Society has collapsed. Electricity, running water, cellphones, and the Internet have failed. The way of life Rick (and the readers) knew is gone. Sound familiar? It should. In recent years, Hollywood has produced a number of zombie apocalypse-type films including Zombieland, Quarantine, The Crazies, a remade Dawn of the Dead, and many others. Even Britain has gotten involved, offering the 28 Days Later franchise and the humorous (believe it) Shaun of the Dead. What makes The Walking Dead different is that it isn’t just about the initial zombie outbreak. That time has past. It is now time for the human survivors to band together and forge a new future, one they never envisioned or expected in their wildest nightmares. Where will they find food? How will they keep warm during the winter months? Can they find the antibiotics necessary to cure an illness we would otherwise consider trivial? The Walking Dead, you see, isn’t so much about the living dead, called “Walkers,” preying upon survivors (though horror fans will not be disappointed). The story is about life and how precious it is, about how all of us can take technology, safety, and our loved ones for granted. As the comic claims, “In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally start living.” Like my post on Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend, I encourage skeptical readers and those who do not read comics or the horror genre to give The Walking Dead a fair try. Start with the trade paperback Days Gone Bye (artwork featured), a collection of the first six issues of the comic series. You could be thrilled to discover something you never expected to enjoy. Note: Do not be mislead by the fact that this is a comic book. It is NOT for children. Very adult content abounds.

Sabine Handtke sabine10 — Other than the occasional book recommended by Oprah's Book Cult, I realize that most books with "that" sticker are not for me.
