《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
