I have to stop watching reviews, this sounds funny. Already had the Zombie book in the back of my head. It's getting crowded there! well read btw.

[SableCaught]

@1book1review Haha, I'd be really interested to see what you think if you do pick it up!

You know the author of this book contacted me directly and sent me his book (something that I'm still in aw about) apparently he's a friend on Toby Frost! This is why I read his book XP

I will eat it if it displeases me. Also I know you mentioned you're not much of a fan of classics per se but all the same have you given Jane Eyre a go? I'm reading it atm and ... y'know when you get one of those books that you just want to cuddle forever?

[SableCaught]

@Ovinicus I'm obviously the complete opposite of you. Hate hate hate Jane Eyre, Hate Wuthering Heights ...Villette's less bad but still not a fun read. I just find the Brontes in general as so over the top, so melodramatic and silly.

@SableCaught I can see some kind of hilarious YouTube rivalry spawning between us, culminating in a video where we just hit each other with paperbacks. :P

[SableCaught]

@Ovinicus Pfft, if we're going to come to booksicuffs I will not restrain myself to paper backs I'll tell you! XP

[1book1review]

@SableCaught now that's cool!

[Ovinicus]

@Ovinicus I was afraid of that...

the publisher that translates these kind of books in Brazil (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Emma and the Vampires and so forth) actually got a bunch of brazilian authors to do these kind of things with brazilian classics. It's really good, I kind of became obsessed with them. So, yeah, I'll probably be reading this one, too. They're always hilarious.

@MrSirPopey I know, how the time has flown, I've almost been video making for a year now!

And yeah, this is what I like about these books, taking prim and proper characters and putting them in weird and wacking situations. It's kinda what Jasper Fforde does in some parts of his Thursday Next books.
