For Zombie Appreciation week, I decided to Re-post and take another look at my first review of Generation Dead by Daniel Waters. I actually had the privilege of meeting Daniel Waters a couple of months back, and was instantly charmed by him. For someone who writes about zombies, he was a very normal guy!

My original review of Generation Dead is located HERE.

I recently re read this book and realized that I really do like it. It was a great read, that really hits on how people can react to things that are different or strange to them. And as I pointed out in the original review, Daniel Waters really had a good grasp on how a teenager would react to situations. I would give it a slightly higher rating as well. Instead of a 3 out of 5, I would change it to a 4 out of 5.

Now for the fun part though! This is your chance to win some awesome Generation Dead prizes
