A boy and hit Zombie

In full on 1950s fashion but with an end of the world flare this 2007 film will steal your heart. The misogyny portayed is typical of the time period, but i found myself cheering Carrie Ann Moss on as she decided to stand up for herself. And young Timmy when he gets in trouble Fido either saves the day, or when it was too hard for him he runs home to get mom. And just like in Lassie there is the whole "What is it boy? Is Timmy in trouble?" Dialogue throughout contains a treasure trove of quotable lines.

Disclaimer: I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.

I was so excited to read this story just from the cover and blurb. Although it's "middle-grade", I found it immensely enjoyable, and I laughed myself silly quite a bit. Who wouldn't want to read a young boy exploring a zombie cave and trying to find pirate treasure? I definitely wouldn't want to BE said explorer, but Mick's story is awesome, and I couldn't put the book down until I'd finished it (and made notes right along with him as to what I'd need should I ever decide to pursue this adventure...).

5 stars!

Every word written, kept me wanting to turn to the next page. The story line, the characters were real to me, as if I was there, too. (0 more)

Can't say that this has a negative to it. (0 more)

From the very beginning, when she had her accident, died, and was on the ship. When she arrived in Elsewhere, diving to the bottom of the see, to meeting the love of her rewinding life, to her last day on Elsewhere and her reincarnation. It was all I could think of after reading the book, can't even find the right words to discribe the piece of treasure.
