Kate read and liked Cara O'Brien's review of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies:

I honestly wouldn't have gotten through it if it weren't for the fact that I love the original Pride and Prejudice. Reading P&P&Zombies is like reading the original, just with a few mentions of zombies and the occasional fight scene. Which is fine, but honestly, this book could have been so much better.

For one thing, I don't really see much of a point in writing a book that deviates so little from the original. It'd have been more entertaining if it was an entirely new take on the story, but it really just felt like the author simply switched a few bits out here and there and slapped a new cover on.

Also, the humor in the book is juvenile at best. There weren't a lot of times that I was actually amused by any of it, they were the kind of jokes that would amuse a 13 year old boy. But even a 13 year old boy wouldn't want to read this, since it's so much like the original.

I really wanted this book to be better, but it was a disappointment. I can't think of anyone that I would recommend it to. I only gave it two stars because of the original P&P storyline. The new material was pretty worthless.

The best part of the book: The title and the cover. (less) "
