Book Review/s to share:
Offbeat concepts have passed through everyone's head at one time or another. But what if one spared entirely too much thought for them? "Not All of Them About Zombies" is a compilation of stories by Matthew Rowe, touching on subjects such as the adulthood of Little Red Riding Hood, body swapping, facing ones dreams and fears, and more eclectic topics. As intriguing as it is hilarious, "Not All of Them About Zombies” is highly recommended for community library fiction collections.
I was hooked from the first minute that I picked up this book, it's just that good. The book is filled with a fun, witty, and very clever collection of eleven short stories ranging from fractured fairy tales to horror, with a little comedy and fantasy.
The stories, which are extremely interesting, do an excellent job of showcasing the authors talent and remind me a little of some of Edgar Allen Poe's work and, at the same time, some of the old episodes of The Twilight Zone that I enjoyed as a child...
So if you enjoy fun clever and witty stories with just a little bit of a twist, then you're going to love Not All Of Them About Zombies by Matthew Rowe...
So I am gonna start by saying the one negative about this book. There were no zombie stories. Call the title a play on words but I expected at least one story with the undead. I wasn't pleased. But seems I had paid for the book I might as well read it, right? And like others before me have said in other reviews for this book, the writing is quick, upbeat and well written. The stories were a lot of fun and though I wouldn't have purchased it if I had know there were no zombies in it(literally). I still enjoyed the book. If you like, light, fun reading with a wonderful sense of humor, then get this book, the price is great and the stories are a blast. Unlike a lot of self-published writers, who I am sorry to say, aren't very good, this author has a lot of talent. Now he needs to write a zombie book. That I will wait in line for.
5/5
