The top cover girl looks more like Mary. She looks like River from Firefly a bit.<br /><br />Celi.a: Yeah I read your review of this on Goodreads.com. It was definately fair. It took me a bit to get into this book, but once the breach happened I was catapulted into the action. And I was very impressed with Carrie's depiction of the zombies and Mary's relationship to them. I'm definately going to check out Dead-Tossed Waves. <br />The thing about "reviewing" books for me is that I'd rather just talk about my experience of reading the book. I don't want to put anyone off to reading a book that they might love. I actually believe people should read everything for themselves. I read reviews, obviously, but take them more as a reader's experience.Mandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4054085285665003329.post-37761012566997021812009-11-05T01:14:43.003-08:002009-11-05T01:14:43.003-08:00I'm going to agree with Rhiannon on the 's...I'm going to agree with Rhiannon on the 'sexy' bit. The hype and blurbs had me excited for this one, and unfortunately I couldn't love it. <br /><br />I think you've written a fun and enthusiastic review, though, and I know there are a lot of people out there who ADORED this book. I'm glad you liked it!<br /><br />Will you be reading the next one, <i>Dead Tossed Waves</i>? I'm going to check it out to see where the story goes next...Ceceliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02249223364936344560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4054085285665003329.post-62666844552514644392009-11-04T20:57:42.795-08:002009-11-04T20:57:42.795-08:00Sexy??

I don't think that's a very apt description. <br /><br />Great review though, and I'm glad you enjoyed the book.<br /><br />One more complaint: I don't like the paperback cover at all. The girl looks kinda skanky, and Mary is anything but skanky.Rhiannon Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611927348379723038noreply@blogger.com
