Thanks very much! I am glad that the phrase has stood the test of time.bookowlie wrote:I already posted a comment when this review was published, but I want to congratulate the author on receiving a glowing review and being BOTD today!
Rssllue, it was worth reading your review again just for the phrase "mildly rotting zombie." I need to find a way to use your phrase in ordinary conversation - hahaha. Seriously, I am not a big fan of horror books (I get too scared), but I love humorous books and it seems like the horror is tempered with an injection of humor here.
Also, humor is a big part of this story so I do not think you will be disappointed in any way by it.
Thank you for the kind words, hsimone!hsimone wrote:Excellent review, rssllue! After reading it, I've become even more excited for this read! I don't typically like horror, but since there is both humor and non-goriness, then I will definitely be giving it a read.
Congratulations to the author for receiving such a positive review and for being BOTD!
Also, thanks to everybody else who commented on the review. I really hope that you all enjoy the book, as Ms. Frankel did a really nice job with such a unique story!

One of the biggest problems in turning it into a screenplay was worrying about just HOW rotting she should be, and how much would gross people out and lose their sympathy! It was originally conceived as a webseries, and the idea was that she would rot a little more each episode. . .Rssllue, it was worth reading your review again just for the phrase "mildly rotting zombie."

What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

That sounds perfect! Instead of worrying about applying foundation or concealer every morning, she would have to worry about literally "putting her face on" each day.jfrankel wrote:One of the biggest problems in turning it into a screenplay was worrying about just HOW rotting she should be, and how much would gross people out and lose their sympathy!
