Wassup guys! I’m back to review a graphic novel which is called “Pride + Prejudice + Zombies” which is based on the novel by Jane Austen & Seth Grahame- Smith, adapted by Tony Lee, and illustrated by Cliff Richards.
Whole Summary:
It’s about the Bennet girls, their family, and their journey through the zombie apocalypse.
My book review:
- I love Elizabeth Bennet and her character in the story. She has such a strong, fearless, intelligent personality and takes no crap from anyone.
- I love that her sisters call her Lizzie.
- I love the enemies to lovers trope in this book between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.
- I love the gory images of them killing the zombies.
- I felt bad for Charlotte who admitted to Elizabeth that she got bitten by a zombie and is now infected but it’s bittersweet that she wants to spend her last months with her husband before turning.
- I like that Mr. Darcy redeemed himself in the middle of the book.
- When Lady Catherine De Bourgh made her first appearance I thought she was a little too proud of herself for being the greatest female zombie slayer in Britain and was a little hesitant of Elizabeth’s fighting skills. Afterwards at the end of the book Elizabeth and Lady Catherine had a duel because of Lady Catherine’s insults towards Elizabeth’s family and supposed inferiority.
- To be honest I would also be angry and challenge her to a duel. Thankfully she ends the duel for her dignity.
- I love that the sisters care so much for each other and support each other in their endeavors.
- I absolutely love that they did a retelling of the book with zombies and they incorporated it into a movie along with the original Pride and Prejudice novel and movie.
- I like that they trained in the deadly arts and they’re not your typical girly princesses.
- I like that they call zombies as “unmentionables” or “dreadfuls” or call the event “the strange plague”.
- I loved all the plotlines in the book as it was all related to each other in a big or small way.
Overall this book was great to read and I love the pictures!!
