Married with Zombies Read a Long (with book review)... Last Week!

Last one!
This week questions come from: Missie @ The Unread Reader

Questions for Chapters 21-26 

1. In Chapter 21, David and Sarah venture into a grocery store to try to find some essentials. Show us a picture of the top three items you consider your essentials when you go shopping.

2. Sarah and David travel quite a distance to “visit” a family member. Show us a picture of your most recent family vacation. Who did you visit and where did you go?

Um... vacay? What's that? When I travel to visit family I usually go to Denver.

3. Sarah refers to David’s sister as the Martha Stewart type because she likes to make things from scratch. Show us a picture a hobby or home project you get enthusiastic about making/doing.

I'm not Martha like (as I don't need everything perfect) but I love to make things. Usually it's stuff I know I can't afford, but think I can make on my own. It's different things at different times. Right now it's jewelry:
Sorry for the not so great photos. I didn't have the best camera at the time and I was being lazy and picking pictures that I already had available. These are 2 pieces I had fun coming up with and then my mom stole them. :) I'm glad she liked them so much to take them! :) Also, what I like about doing this, is if I decide I don't like it, I can take it apart and do something else with it.

4. David and Sarah decide to start up their own Zombie exterminators business, and even come up with a name and slogan for it, “S and D Zombie Extermination. We take care of your undead issues.” If you opened up your own zombie killing business, what would you call it, and what would your slogan be?

My zombie business would be:

 ZombieKilla

tag line:
Let us take a bite out of zombies before they take a bite out of you!

Of course I'd use my pups as the mascots... ;)

5. What were your favorite/least favorite parts of Married with Zombies? Aside from David and Sarah, who was your favorite/least favorite character?

The cult couple were my least fave character. They were scary. Fave? I guess it was Conrad. He was a hoot... for a short time... :)

6. What do you think is coming up next for David and Sarah? Which do you think has a better chance of survival, their marriage or their humanity? Will you continue reading this series, and if so, what do you hope to see happen in the next book?

Well, I think they won't try marriage counseling again. Although now I think their marriage stands a better chance than humanity. I do plan on continuing the series and I hope that they connect to Sarah's father. He sounds interesting.

My full Review:

A heartwarming tale of terror in the middle of the zombie apocalypse. 
Meet Sarah and David. 
Once upon a time they met and fell in love. But now they're on the verge of divorce and going to couples' counseling. On a routine trip to their counselor, they notice a few odd things - the lack of cars on the highway, the missing security guard, and the fact that their counselor, Dr. Kelly, is ripping out her previous client's throat. 
Meet the Zombies. 
Now, Sarah and David are fighting for survival in the middle of the zombie apocalypse. But, just because there are zombies, doesn't mean your other problems go away. If the zombies don't eat their brains, they might just kill each other.
Tired of the same old zombie theme? Wanna see a bit more humor than you are used to getting with this genre? Well, look no further... this book has all of that and gore as well! It's a book for couples as well as those who are still single looking for that unaffected partner.

Okay, commercial over. I really did enjoy this book. It does have the gore, zombie killings and even tugs at your heart strings. You also laugh a lot. And although Sarah and David's bickering does get old quickly, it really fits the story and they don't bicker for long. I guess the moral of the story is, is if you need to fix your marriage quick don't go to a marriage counselor... go find a zombie apocalypse to survive. Your marriage will thank you.

I give this book 4 stars and will be reading further in this series. I can't wait to see what else kind of trouble these two get themselves into and out!

  6. ZombieKilla could totally be your derby name! No one would think of messing with you!

    And I'm so used to Ozzie's puppy eyes that they don't have any effect on me, much to his dismay.

    Did I ever tell you that the BEE bookmark you gave me is my most favorite bookmark EVER! I love that it. You are a crafty queen.

  8. I love how your doggies look at you with beseeching eyes. Aww, how can you bear to leave them behind??

    And your jewelry- my goodness - you are so talented! It's been awhile since I've seen some of your stuff but if your mom hadn't stolen them, I probably would have!
