Book Review of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
izzyo avatar reviewed on


I am a hardcore Jane Austen fan, but I love the idea of this book and wanted to enjoy it so I did try to get into this book with the mind set that this was NOT going to be the P&P I love, but even so, I just could not get into it. Maybe if the author had done a little research he could have woven in the zombie theme a bit more creatively, but the two stories just do not seem to mesh well. Also, reading the conversations was just plain painful, none of that elegance or art that you see in the original version. I also really did not like the way Mr. Bennet's character was changed, in P&P he is a man of few words and in this version he seemed down right chatty!
