I Swallow Books Whole
I Swallow Books Whole rated it 9 years ago
This review was originally posted on One Curvy BloggerI picked up the first volume of iZombie from the library after I realized that the new TV show I have binge watched the last couple of weeks was loosely based on Chris Roberson’s graphic novels. Even though the show and the books are completely d...

Hmm... how do I feel about this? Well, first off I've never seen the show but a friend recommended this graphic novel so I bit. I like zombies, so why not! What's weird about this particular story though, is it's... fluffy? I think that's the right word. Zombie stories are normally dark, blood-fille...

Playful, and bursting with color, this collection has little in common with the TV adaptation other than basic concepts and the same humorous flare. Gwen the zombie is a gravedigger with a bubbly 60s ghost and a were-terrier for bestfriends. Together they pass time at the local diner, and if they fe...

Overall, I liked this graphic novel. The artwork was very well done and contained some very beautiful pieces. I really enjoyed getting to know the characters, especially Gwen and Scott. I did find that the multiple storylines and cut shots made the book seem choppy and a little confusing. Also the s...

Interesting characters, promising storyline. There was a nice mix of monsters with a twist that could lead to fun times in monster town.

Okay first off I am going to say we all know I love fantasy. I adore it and I adore short stories. It is what got me started as a writer. But! And there is a but. You see one of the things that drives me nuts is a story where the author is taking themselves too seriously. They are not writing a st...

Color me underwhelmed. I love the concept. A non-mindless Zombie has to keep eating brains so she doesn't become the shuffling, mindless kind. She's got a friend who's a ghost, and another who's a were-terrier (possibly the idea I enjoyed most), and works as a grave digger so she has easy access...

Inkspot Fancy
Inkspot Fancy rated it 10 years ago
A mixed bag of a book. First, if fanfic is a turnoff for you, be warned there are two stories in here which are basically fanfic, one with the serial numbers filed off and one which relied on the serial numbers to make its point. Maybe it's weird of me, but if I want fanfic, I'll wander the intern...

Ex libris de librum vermis rated it 10 years ago
The end of the whole series played to it's predictability and though it was a good idea, it's realization came a bit flat and forced and the end itself kind of rushed.There were really big possibilities with this story - both on the excitement and the scope of canvas (whole multiverse), yet apart fr...
