《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》"To be a runner" by GravityWillFall01
Advertisement
I started reading this book at the right time. I'm currently watching Cryaotic's let's play of the Walking Dead, so I was in a perfect zombie apocalypse mood.
This book follows the plot of Zombies, run!, which I believe is an exercise app. In the game, you are runner five, and you work out while doing various zombie apocalypse related missions as a runner for Abel Township.
Seeing as I've never played this game (it's too big for my phone), I can't exactly tell what the Author made up and what not. I'll try my best, bear with me.
The plot is mainly the game's plot, but really, with this book I don't care that the author didn't think it up all by herself. The plot is awesome.
I also don't know which characters are from the game and which are OC's, (I can guess but meh) but I like all of them. They have great chemistry and I love 'em to bits.
GPS is well done, but you can find a lot of editing mistakes in the chapters. I recommend double-checking for mistakes before publishing.
Two more things:
1. I love the writing style. It's not too over-the-top descriptive, but it doesn't lack anything either. I like it that way. Keep up the good work!
2. There are currently 49, LONG chapters. It took me a few days to read the whole thing. It's awesome, but you gotta have the time for it.
Lastly, a thing I want to ask you guys: how come nobody in the zombie apocalypse ever thinks about riding a bicycle? In my country, we use bicycles for everything. They don't require fuel, they're faster and less tiring then running... I dunno, it seems like perfect apocalypse transportation to me.
All in all, I recommend this book to... hm... everyone! Go read it!
Rating: 8.5

A Budding Scientist in a Fantasy World
Alice is a girl who loves science and lives on Earth. Then, suddenly, she was punted into another dimension. A dimension where magic and monsters roam the land, swords and sorcery reign supreme, and, for some reason, a System keeps dinging at her and telling her that her stats and levels are increasing. As someone who loves exploring mysteries, Alice is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. After all, everything has to have a ‘cause,’ including the System, right? What to expect: This story is going to be a LitRPG set in a fantasy world. However, unlike many LitRPG’s, the system has both a definite beginning and definite limits to what it is able to accomplish – rather than a singularly omnipotent, omniscient being that is tied to the laws of the world, the way systems are usually presented in LitRPG’s, the system is close to both, but has definite limits and rules which it operates by. This story is also relatively slow, since that is my writing style. The main character also begins the story as a young, 15-year old girl who has yet to finish high school, and is going to explore more of the world around her as she grows as a person and starts to get her feet under her.
