I've finally finished an extremely unique novel. It is a story with an unusual plot, and unusual characters. However, I actually enjoyed it!
So, what is this novel about?
*drumroll* Zombies, or a.k.a in the novel 'The Undead,' 'Corpsicles,' 'Worm-Burgers' (which are all derogative terms by the way). But, to be politically correct, you can, no, should, call them Differently Biotic.
Throughout the reading of the novel and the eventual completion, I had a question swirling around my head. It was whether I would've been pro-Zombie, or anti-Zombie? You see, in the novel, American teens are coming back from the dead. Many people feel scared and worried, thus the attitude of hate, spite and being anti-Zombie. Still, there are some sympathetic people. Some of the Traditionally Biotic (hey, thet's us! The 'Breathers,' 'Blood-bags' or plain ole' humans) students of a high school in the novel make friends with the zombies. If this were to be true, would I have been a Hater or an Accepter? (not sure if it's a word...)
I think I would have trouble deciding. It depends on what my faith would say. I don't want to get political here, but I am quite of a believer in God. Right now, I have no answer. But I would like to think I would accept the zombies, sorry, I mean Differently Biotic, and help them. Eventually, I could then befriend them.
Sorry for all the rambling, but what would you say or do?

It's a bit like Bella accepting vampires, in the book, Twilight. She accepts them.
I'm not so sure about zombies... They seem too...... gee, I dunno... sloppy and dirty. They drool too much and they make unnecessary sound effects. They walk slow like they're fat and lazy, they look like they're sleep-walking. If you're going to wake up from the dead, seriously! Wake up properly!
Could you tell me what book that is? It sounds really good.
I.K:Aha, that's the thing! We already have a stereotypical idea made up about zombies, that we might have difficulty in changing. Read, the book, and I'm sure you will be an accepting, pro-Zombie, person. I know your personality, and you are too kind to be mean!
D.O: It is called Generation Dead by Daniel Waters. It is a YA book.
Random Irregular: Thank you for the book title. :)
