Zom-B by Darren Shan
5.0

DARREN!

It is another brilliant book. Very relevant in this time again. It is exactly why I love Darren.. it is written genius, the story swept me right into it from the start.

And I don't like horror stories, usually. Unless Darren wrote it, then I love it. Same with this, again!

The twist at the end was spoiled for me, but it made it also fun to read towards it, to be looking for hints or things you could have missed when you are not paying attention to it. But no. it is done brilliantly.

This book is about so much important stuff (racism, family situations, assumptions people make) without the book really being about it. It is a action packed rollercoaster to read. I enjoyed every page of it and I really cannot wait to read the rest of the series BECAUSE THAT ENDING OMG WHAT. Thank God I bought the whole series at once, I will be binging this!

I also really enjoyed the illustrations. They really added some value and some edge to the story.
