Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry

Go to review page

5.0

This was a great book. If you like zombies then you need to read this. It looks at the relationship between Benny and his older brother Tom. Benny has little respect for Tom because he feels that Tom could have done more on First Night (the first night of the zombie apocolypse) to help save their parents. He sees his brother as a coward despite the fact that he goes out into the rot and ruin daily as a bounty hunter. When Benny decides to become Tom's apprentice, he sees that there is a lot more to being a bounty hunter than he originally thought and that the zombies are more complex that he thought. He comes to see his brother in a different light as he sees the corruption in the ruin.

This book was ok. It definitely kept my interest and I will continue to read the series but it was a little weird at times. I felt that Caine tried to have too many different elements at once (like Michael being this weird ghost). Some of the dialogue seemed forced. This is a the vampires are the bad guys book. The series is really long and this book ends on a cliff hanger.

I would recommend this to any male teens who were looking for some realistic fiction to read. It incorporates graphics quite nicely. I felt that overall the main character was too whiney and that Edmond left to much unsaid in the beginning and instead of insights (like the fact that the main character's brother actually died and was going out with Chloe) that should be shocking and enlightening are confusing and leave the reader feeling like he or she missed something.

The Blue Bloods series never dissapoints! While I don't like all of the fashion stuff that goes on, de la Cruz makes up for that by having incredible page turning plots.

In this book the action is taken to Rio where the Silver Bloods make themselves known once and for all. Schuyler also has to deal with her conflicting feelings for Jack and Oliver

I really love Mackler's writing and would recommend her books to any female teen readers.

This book looks at the ways in which V shakes up her aunt Mara's (who is only slightly older than her)world when she comes to live with her. Mara has been the image of perfection but V makes helps her see there is a little more to life than being perfect...
