4.5 stars. Wow, this was a stunning book, absolutely creepy and the perfect read for the Halloween season.This book consists out of photographs of letters, cards, posters, anything that people wrote on before and during the zombie apocalypse. At the beginning of the book we also have a timeline with...
A really interesting, sometimes moving, sometimes funny, sometimes creepy collection of "found" letters from the zombie apocalypse. It's been a while since I read it, but definitely time for a re-read. You'll want to finish it in one sitting.
This is what [b:PostSecret|87640|PostSecret Extraordinary Confessions from Ordinary Lives (PostSecret)|Frank Warren|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348984065s/87640.jpg|84604] will look like after the zombie apocalypse. Like PostSecret, it's a collection of (mostly) handwritten notes, supposedly coll...

I liked it. Some of the notes were a bit repetitive in theme but you'd expect that of actual notes left in the zombie apocalypse. Some of them didn't make much sense in that I doubt you'd have a written conversation about certain things in the zombie apocalypse. But some were rather creative and i...
Close third for favorite zombie books (behind World War Z by Max Brooks and Feed by Mira Grant). This was beautiful and heart wrenching and felt real. The dogs know.Sorry about the couch.Get your flu shot. Get ammo.You're freaking me out.Infected.The baby turned.
I've been very leery of new books in this (sub)genre (which I'm going to loosely define as in-character found documents from the zombie apocalypseZombies: A Record of the Year of Infection: Field Notes by Dr. Robert Twombly and found that the purported "year" began in January and ended in March.
