#98 Feed by Mira Grant

[missingvolume]

I admit I judged this book by the zombies and I held off reading it even though I like the writers other books very much.  [Mira Grant is a pen name for Seanan McGuire] I was wrong to hold off reading them. The only plus to hold off is I don't have to wait on book two. Yes there are zombies but this really is more of a thriller type of book and I like the world building of trying to live in a world that has zombies and still trying to live a normal life and how that wrecks havoc on every day life. I've recommended the book to several other people and I can now see why it was on the ballot for the Hugo.  Now to try and now read the second book ASAP and then sit and whine for book 3.

I read her blog but I had been skipping the stuff on this series. I really liked the book and was even trying to get non SF readers to try it.

Adding to Amazon list. Tks. Did I ever ask (and did you reply) if you had tried the Sandman Slim series? Your comment about getting ready to whine about waiting for the next book reminded me...

I haven't read them and the sad thing is I have met the writer a few times now.

Are you still considering accepting reader contributions for reviews? I will have time over the holiday break (as long as I bring my notebook with me).

Sure I just may never get to them because I suck. In fact I have the first Sandman Slim in eformat when it was a freebee.
