I know many of you have not read "WARM BODIES"yet and have not even received your copy but I decided after finishing my Review Copy last night that I simply could not hold off on writing my review for you all to read. I can honestly say that those of you that intend on reading this and those of you that have entered the contest and will be receiving a copy... you will NOT be disappointed. Below is my review as I am publishing it on other sites that I am currently involved with. I look forward to your own. "Given this wonderful opportunity to review this book I can only say that I am glad not to have missed it. "WARM BODIES" is the kind of novel that leaves an imprint on your mind and broadens your imagination. This novel is without a doubt one of the best reads I've come across in a very long time. I find the entire concept of the regaining of humanity so enlightening and for once to have a zombie novel give hope to the prospect of recreating the world was vastly creative! Kudos to you Isaac Marion, you have pulled off what I feel will become one of the greatest stories in the supernatural vein that contains depth, intrigue, and emotion. I hope you continue to write because I can honestly say I crave more of this story as much as the "Bonies" crave retribution!"

Great review, it's got me pumped to read it. I did find an excerpt online, and it looks great. I don't often feel like I'm being pulled into a world, but that happened with the small sample that I read. I'm excited to read this book, and once I do I'll be sure to let you all know my take!

I eagerly anticipated this book after winning the raffle and though at first it took me a little bit to get into the writing. I finally settled in and needless to say I am finished and left wanting to know more. The intrigue of the story kept me wondering though at points it seemed to be a bit slower for me to concentrate I continued through and with great delight discovered I was not disappointed. I just have to ask and wonder will there ever be more to the story of R and Julie. I hate to think I'm giving anything away but it was a nice change to have the moment where for once the undead got a choice to actually come back from who they had become and discover maybe a little of who they once were and even the battle and struggle from both sides not just one side of the acceptance of the relationship forming between Julie and R.
I actually began to feel for R something I found surprising as most Zombies I want nothing more than to run screaming in the opposite direction of them. To think that a small miracle could come about with a little understanding and some love is a good change. I think it's a wonderful read and will give people just what it preaches hope... Pick it up and give it a go. You may enjoy it more than I .
