A review by labunnywtf
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen, Seth Grahame-Smith
2.0
Read for Book Roast's Magical Readathon: NEWTs Exams. Subject: Muggle Studies, O Level. (A Retelling)
If this book has proven anything to me, it's that Pride and Prejudice and the like are NOT MY JAM.
If slapping zombies and ninjas into the 19th century isn't going to make it more enjoyable for me, NOTHING WILL.
This started out strong. The humor is definitely here, the proper society ladies who just happen to use katana swords and muskets to take out "unmentionables" who may take to eating their neighbors. Mustn't let something as insignificant as a zombie outbreak stop oneself from finding a proper husband.
And you know, if someone happens to marry one of the "sorry stricken", it's best not to tell them. They'll figure it out eventually.....right?
But this novelty wears off. With a quickness. And then you're still reading Pride and Prejudice. And it's still mind numbing.
If you like Pride and Prejudice, and you enjoy zombies, maybe you will like this? But I feel like if you like one and not the other, you're best just passing this up.
