Alice in Zombieland

    Alice in Zombieland embodied an original concept which blew people's minds. The plot was fast-paced, though it didn't have amazing twists as Divergent and Hush, Hush. The protagonist, Alice Bell, was funny, witty, stubborn, and vengeful (haha You'll understand the book if you read it) Ali had white-blond hair and huge baby blue eyes. Ali firmly protected people she loved and demonstrated fortitude and tenacity during zombie fights. Though she lost her family due to zombies, instead of fearing the zombies, she developed animosity against the zombies and vowed to destroy the evil spirits. The male protagonist, Cole Holland, had jet-black hair and gorgeous violet eyes. (Hair so black that looks like electric blue) He embodied alpha male character  (unlike Jack Deveaux from Poison Princess), yet he was protective of Ali. He deeply believed in Ali's strength and trained her to become a tough zombie fighter. He cared about his friends more than himself and he was the leader among the zombie slayers. The friendship between Cole and his friends was steadfast, which reminded me of that in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Such bonding is precious and unique compared to the mainstream YA novels which simply focus on romance. The brotherhood touched my heartstring deeply. Furthermore, the character development is amazing since most of the characters were likable. I missed Emma and believed that the author should publish books from her POV. Of course, I will be extremely excited to read Cole's POV. However, I was quite disappointed with the battles since I predicted that they should be more magnificent, meaning perilous. I truly hope that Ms. Showalter can explain the details of Anima Industry in Through the Zombie Glass. Overall, Showalter gave a whole-new idea about zombies and her writing flew fluently.

No more explanation. That's enough to explain my excitement.
