Ayelet, you are now in the inner circle of my dearest darlings. World War Z is the greatest. I keep hearing rumors about a movie, but don’t hear anything concrete.

I’m so glad you posted about World War Z. Whenever I mention that book (and it’s often b/c I LOVED it), people give me weird looks. I think for some reason in the realm of adult lit zombies are too sci fi to be considered good reads. So bravo for writing about it!

@Jon

I actually love it when these old threads pop back up. It reminds me that things don’t vanish once they’re no longer on the home page. And bravo with the “resurrect” theme during the zombie discussion.

I just requested Breathers at the library. I’d never heard of it, thank you. I’d love to hear what you think when you get done with WWZ. They’ve been rumoring a movie forever, but so far I haven’t heard anything concrete.

Josh, sorry to resurrect an older thread but I couldn’t resist. I’m a huge zombie fan and while I have read World War Z, I haven’t yet had the chance to read the other two books you recommend. They are definitely going on my list.

Anyway, I wanted to ask if you have read the book “Breathers”? It’s not your traditional zombie fare, but still a pretty good read.
