I normally avoid zombies like the plague, but after reading one of Bick's previous novels, I wasn't about to let this one pass me by. It's wonderfully atmospheric, creative, and I love Bick's engaging writing style.Riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07389928365091431462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429490693564892489.post-55635967164066599932012-01-12T09:21:26.018-08:002012-01-12T09:21:26.018-08:00I really enjoyed this book as well.

Right now I'm reading her contemporary novel, Drowning Instinct, and that book is great, too even though it's in a different genre.<br /><br />LOVE the new layout, by the way!!Jessi E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15106758044105449908noreply@blogger.com
