I actually won this book in a giveaway so this is my honest thoughts on the book.

I love zombies anyone who has seen my reviews before knows this. 

I have to say with this book there were zombies but not much gore surrounded them. This makes a good teen book. We are mostly told what is going on through Roan. He is a teenager who had a normal life until one day his mom and him were moved to a military base. What stands outside the fence are zombies, dead heads, stiffs what ever you can think of. Now it seems that these zombies are just there but they aren't attacking anyone or anything until later on within the book.

You see Roan likes to be a loner and with that he sees a lot of things going on around him that makes him wonder what exactly is going on and why do the military doctors need to take everyone's blood every day? Something of course sounds fishy. 

When all of those that are of school age go to school who knew how their day would end. Roan and a group of friends decide to take over the school. Though what they end up learning and seeing about these zombies are something more. Are they truly going to hunt down people now? Why are they not getting the answers by the big guys in charge?

I have to say I liked how the author focused more on the teens than just the adults. Even though it seemed that Roan was a bit more mature than seventeen. 

The thing I just wanted to know is what caused this to come about? How did people become dead heads? 

This was a good read that I enjoyed and I hope to see more zombies and how Roan and his friends will survive in the school. 

I don't find it easy to review Zombie High Chronicles I, which I got through a contest, apparently (I don't remember joining, but that's my fault not the book's). I can not really pinpoint and say why I didn't quite enjoy myself as much as I had hoped I would.

The start is as you would expect. There has been this zombie outbreak, only the zombies just are there and don't attack people or seem to have any interest really. How they survive if they don't eat, don't ask me. For their safety however, the main characters are behind a fence to protect them from these zombies, who for the record don't attack at all. As the experimentation on the zombies continues, so does the danger grow.

The cast of high school kids will fight soldiers and newer zombies before the end of the book. The problem was that it just couldn't keep my interest. I was reading it and thinking, okay, but never did I want to find out what was going to happen or did I feel a connection with one of the characters. Maybe it was too short for that, it felt like a rather short read, or maybe it was too generic a zombie story, I don't know. But I did feel underwhelmed by it, unfortunately. I have to conclude that this book wasn't for me.

Thanks to the publisher for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
