My Review of Warm Bodies

Warm BodiesWarm Bodies by John Marrs
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

We’ve All Fantasized…

This book said so much in such a short and delightful span. I never once considered the gender of the author due to Brenda’s authenticity. Having picked this title based solely on the blurb, I was pleasantly surprised to learn it was written by a man because the protagonist is a woman after my own heart.

How often have you fantasized of doing something “dark” to protect, provide, or both for your loved ones?
Don’t people always gossip from their own sin despite our efforts to remain invisible and unobtrusive?
Aren’t there always others who want what you have, thinking they deserve it more than you, especially without knowing facts?

I loved so many things. The details, showing the author understood the technical aspects. The relationships, representing both the love & sacrifice along side the ritual & obligation of cultural falsehoods. Esme and the animals, for fun, nature, and innocence.

I recommend this short story. I’m glad I own it because I’ll read it again. It was that good.
