The rest of this book is a rollercoaster of fear and creepiness. I noticed some words and I was just wondering how anyone would get those wrong.īut those 2 points are really the only ones that I thought weren’t right.

The second one, and I can slightly forgive that one, as you are in a zombie apocalypse, but some were also from before, the fact the grammar and spelling at times just lacked. And I just gave up and went to the next one. Diversity is nice, and I can imagine that people are rushing to write, but I wish I could just read them. I can imagine that they wanted diversity in how the notes looked, but I feel that it failed. One, sometimes I just couldn’t decipher what was written. The only reason why I didn’t give this book a 5 star was because of 2 things. I also liked that we went from good (there is a flu, and yes it is creepy) to bad (OMG ZOMBIES!). There were also letters of people who knew they would turn, who knew they would change into those monsters. Throughout the book I had goosebumps all over me, and I just felt afraid, but also sad, because some of these notes are ones were people are looking for their loved ones, or confess that they did something. Several of the letters also have blood on them, and that really adds to the scary factor the book has. The pure desperateness that just flows out of those short messages, the pure fear that made them so short, the fact that you just know that these people didn’t make it, or are now alone, still searching for the people they love. I have to say that the short ones gave me more goosebumps than the longer letters. The stuff written is sometimes short, sometimes very long. And I have to say this book? It did it perfectly. It is nothing new that zombie apocalypses start by a new strain of flu, there are several books that feature this, but it is always interesting to see how it is executed.

How it started with a flu and how it ended in people just, well, eating each other.

At the beginning of the book we also have a timeline with some basic information so we know how the world ended in this book. This book consists out of photographs of letters, cards, posters, anything that people wrote on before and during the zombie apocalypse. Wow, this was a stunning book, absolutely creepy and the perfect read for the Halloween season.
