Generation Dead

review 1: First of all, Generation Dead is one of my all-time favorite books. I was super super excited to finally read the second book in the series. And I greatly enjoyed reading it.But honestly, it's not the most well-written book ever. Maybe my standards have risen after taking in-depth writing courses, but I couldn't help but notice a lot of little things that interrupted the flow of the overall story.I also didn't feel as drawn to some of the characters as I did before. Phoebe is kind of annoying, mopy, and indecisive, but she's not all bad. Margi and Collette are outrageously comedic. Adam is an extreme sympathy-inducing character, poor guy. Karen is interesting, as always. But everyone, especially Karen, makes a big deal about how many people fall in love with Phoebe, which ... moreis usually the case with urban fantasy. But really, it's only Adam and Tommy. Little bit of an exaggeration there.All of that aside, I did enjoy it. There are so many plot progressions, which I LOVE. I love that the world of Generation Dead is getting bigger and expanding and getting complex and dangerous and revolutionary. I love how horrifying some of these things are. However, there are lots of things that were hinted at that weren't followed up on. Maybe they'll come in in a later book, but I kept wanting to know more about George and Karen, specifically. It's pointed out how "zombified" George is, with his eating habits and weird shuffling. And then it's pointed out how "human" Karen is. I really want to know what's going on with that.Okay, I feel like I've read way too much into a lot of this book and criticized it in way too much detail. But this just shows how much I care about it... I just find the Generation Dead world so interesting.
review 2: *sighs* yet another bad boring book. The perspective was all over the place... Including chapters from a new zombie that was having trouble adjusting, so the chapter read like gibberish. And of course you got to see what was going on from the bad guys point of view. Thanks but no thanks. This was another thrift book find that was better off left on the shelf.Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.5 stars... I loved this book! It had earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP. less
