I love this trend of making trailers for books. This one looks fun. “Warm Bodies” written by Isaac Marion.
I’m all about the sympathetic view point of the zombie. Tragic monsters doomed to wander the blasted Earth, forever hungry for the flesh of the living…. It’s…. It’s so sad.
About the book:
R is a man with an existential crisis—he is a zombie. He shuffles through an America destroyed by war, social collapse, and the mindless hunger of his undead comrades, but he craves something more than blood and brains. He can speak just a few grunted syllables, but his inner life is deep, full of wonder and longing. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he has dreams.
After experiencing a teenage boy’s memories while consuming his brain, R makes an unexpected choice that begins a tense, awkward, and strangely sweet relationship with the victim’s human girlfriend. Julie is a blast of color in the dreary and gray landscape that surrounds R. His decision to protect her will transform not only R but also his fellow Dead, and perhaps their whole lifeless world. Scary, funny, and surprisingly poignant, Warm Bodies is about being alive, being dead, and the blurry line in between.

I saw this book the other day and have been sitting on the fence… this was an excellent trailer. I agree that trailers for books are awesome.
It made me want it. I’m still hoping someone makes a “Huckelberry Finn” zombie crossover book. I hated that book so much in Highschool. I wanted that damned kid to be torn limb from limb on every page.
Zombies could only improve that work.
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Zombie Jim… Search it out on Amazon.
Nice! Do I dare subject myself to more Huckleberry Finn, despite swearing a blood oath I would rather die than read Mark Twain’s works again? Even for Zombies?
I’m afraid.
