Goodread's Bio: Had
anyone told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between
one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. From blissful to
tragic, innocent to ruined? Please. But that’s all it took. One
heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and
loved was gone.
Her father was right. The monsters are real….
To
avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she
must learn to trust the baddest of the bad boys, Cole Holland. But Cole
has secrets of his own, and if Ali isn’t careful, those secrets might
just prove to be more dangerous than the zombies….
My Review:
First, i knew going into this that this is NOT a retelling of Alice in
Wonderland plus zombies!!! i read a lot of negative reviews where they
mainly gave it 1/2 stars because they were misled. all i had to do was
read the inside little bio and knew it wasn't anything related to Alice
in Wonderland.
Top 3 Main Characters for me:
Alice:
The whole story is told from Alice's POV. I love Alice. She speaks to
me! She's sassy and has the best come backs. She's well written and i
connected with her quickly.
Cole: Hulky heartthrob! i had a
love/hate relationship with him the whole book. he's the leader of the
zombie hunting group. everyone in school is afraid of him, every girl
wants in his pants. yuck. i dislike characters written like that so i
had a hard time liking him. But towards the end, he really opened up and
i grew to like him.
Kat: i love Kat!!! i need her as my best
friend in real like. she suffers though some bad stuff but is always
looking on the bright side and is always there for Alice!
Plot:
Alice's dad is crazy, claiming he sees monsters everywhere and doesn't
let his family out after the sun goes down. On Alice's birthday, her
sister Emma has a dance recital and Alice convinces her dad to let them
go out after dark to see it. (view spoiler)
Alice begins
to see the same monsters her dad saw and she learns there are others
like her. She joins them and learns she's a pretty badbutt person
compared to them :]
Overall:this book is badbutt! i loved every minute of it! i'm greatly looking forward to reading the next in the series :]
