Please, please dont let the z-word turn you away from this book. I mean, dont get me wrong: this book has some fantastic, edge of your seat type action, including some of the zombie battling classics... I only have one bullet left! SAVE IT FOR YOURSELF! But the truth is, the zombies are merely the stimulus behind the really scary stuff in this book: human complacency and fear, the mass marketing of lies, and the biggest freak show of them all the republican primary. Replace the zombies withI went into this book mostly blind. I was honestly a bit surprised when I kept seeing Feed in my Goodreads updates and Blogger feed. The only Feed I knew about was a 2005 atrocity of a film about a force feeding fetish and I wrongly assumed this was the novelization. How the hell had a book like that become so popular? But since everyone seemed to be reading it I stuck on my Ipod when it was offered on Overdrive. And, yes I know there is something terribly wrong with me besides sometimes acting
This book is about mobs of mindless zombies influencing American politics. Surprisingly, its not about the Tea Party.In the year 2014, genetically engineered viruses mutated and caused the dead to come back to life and start munching on people like senior citizens at a casino buffet. Over 20% of the worlds population got gobbled up like popcorn shrimp, and in 2040 the threat of the still existing virus and zombies has changed life forever. Since the virus is present in everyones system, when
three stars - look at me!! i am right in the middle of the road with this one!! watch out for traffic, karen!!!i wanted to read this as soon as it came out. i think i bought it the week we got it into the store. but, you know how i roll, this was just sitting around for ages and ages in a stack by the door. and then i heard that it was amaaaazing. and then i heard that it was terrrrrible. and etc etc. and it wasn't until zombie month 2011 that i managed to see for my damn self.and for me, it was
Going to artsy college is weird.The school reading Im used to is, like, white dudes with sharp writing styles from the mid-twentieth century. Or white dudes with clunky writing styles from the nineteenth century. Or the occasional lyrical white dude from ancient Greece.Theres some of that at artsy college. But theres also this.Yes. I read this book, about bloggers in a zombie apocalypse, for a real, human class. For credit. This book got me that one extra step toward graduation.Does it seem like
Final rating: 5/5 starsFinal rating - for the whole series: 5/5 stars Sooooo....ever heard of Zombie reporters?No? Well, meet: Georgia Mason and Shaun Mason~ from After the end times! Now seriously. It is one of the rare books where you actually have two siblings for main characters who aren't blood related at all. I usually find many books with a whiny female who is sad about her life, she is boring or she is just so idiotic. This isn't the case, here we have strong main characters Shaun and
4.5 stars - I am used by now to read books that are great amazing in the beginning, ok by the middle, and surprise the hell out of me all through the ending. Feed is that kind of book and even more.I loved how it started (with such a great adventure), and I loved that feeling I got through the story, like I was part of it, finding more and more information about the world, the virus, the people involved. Yes, at some point it got to be a bit slow, but it was still full of useful information
