About book Zombies Don't Cry (2011)

Review: Maddy Swift is Normal. Trying to pass food class, sneaking in and out, and going out to dances. This stops when she is struck by lightning. Which makes her a zombie. Under the wing of some fellow zombies, Chloe and Dane, Maddy starts to adjust to life as a one of the undead. Even when you take into the fact that Zerkers, crazy ones past civilised zombie-ism, are running round her high school.I’d heard of Rusty and his books ages ago and so was happy to see he got a deal in the UK.These zombies are very original. I like the fact that there’s more to them than eating brains, but that is a big part of them. I also like the use of the lightning-not the bolt on the creators table, more a bolt while out doing normal things, and the subversion of the trope is good.The main characters, Maddy, Chloe and Dane, are all very likable and make a great friendship group. Love interest Stamp is cute, but he doesn’t really do much. I like the fact that Maddie was quite active and did lots of things despite just being throne into this new world with its bureaucracy and rules. Chloe is my favourite character because she just wins in terms of coolness.The writing is chatty, open and fun. I love the chapter titles. All the things that happen to Maddy after she becomes undead are unpredictable and crazy. The climax at the school was well done. I liked the circular structure-the way it comes back to the guy in the blue suit…Overall: Strength 3 tea to a fun zombie romance. Light reading targeted to the Young Adult demographic who likes the supernatural. This is a different tale on the zombie phenomenon - not all zombies are created equally. While it may not be "high lit'rature", being a zombie love story and all, it wasn't a bad read. Great for a beach or poolside distraction or for a car trip. I would probably read the next book in this series if it came my way.
