Özet

‘The zombie novel with a heart', Guardian

Now a major motion picture starring Nicholas Hoult, Teresa Palmer and John Malkovich, Warm Bodies is the ultimate zombie read this Halloween.

'R' is a zombie. He has no name, no memories, and no pulse, but he has dreams. He is a little different from his fellow Dead.

Amongst the ruins of an abandoned city, R meets a girl. Her name is Julie and she is the opposite of everything he knows - warm and bright and very much alive, she is a blast of colour in a dreary grey landscape. For reasons he can't understand, R chooses to save Julie instead of eating her, and a tense yet strangely tender relationship begins.

This has never happened before. It breaks the rules and defies logic, but R is no longer content with life in the grave. He wants to breathe again, he wants to live, and Julie wants to help him. But their grim, rotting world won't be changed without a fight...

I never thought I could care so passionately for a zombie. Isaac Marion has created the most unexpected romantic lead I've ever encountered, and rewritten the entire concept of what it means to be a zombie in the process. This story stayed with me long after I finished reading it. I eagerly await the next book by Isaac Marion (STEPHENIE MEYER)
A mesmerising evolution of a classic contemporary myth (Simon Pegg)
Warm Bodies is a strange and unexpected treat. R is the thinking woman's zombie - though somewhat grey-skinned and monosyllabic, he could be the perfect boyfriend, if he could manage to refrain from eating you. This is a wonderful book, elegantly written, touching and fun, as delightful as a mouthful of fresh brains (AUDREY NIFFENEGGER)
A disarming writer, ruefully humorous, knowingly cinematic in scope. This is a slacker-zombie novel with a heart
Warm Bodies is a terrific book - a compelling literary fantasy which is also a strange and affecting pop-culture parable (Nick Harkaway, author of The Gone-Away World)
Sweet and darkly witty, and, in R, offers a laconically charming hero... Set against the backdrop of this grim world, the life-and-death-changing love affair that develops is wryly playful, cinematic and ultimately moving - through the lost lives of the dead we are able relish life in all its messy, dishevelled gory glory
Has there been a more sympathetic monster since Frankenstein's?
Enormous fun
So sexy it makes Twilight look anaemic
A starry-eyed, sweetly comic story about the humanising power of love, for this is Romeo and Juliet...with zombies

I first heard about Warm Bodies when I watched the movie on TV, I missed the beginning so I was looking for it online when I came across it on audible and saw reviews saying there was more story in the book. I liked the movie so I thought I’d give it a go and after listening to the audiobook, I have fallen in love with it. Loved the story, loved the characters and could fully imagine everything in my head. An amazing book and I would definitely recommend! 🙂.

Liked the Movie, Loved the Book!

I loved this book as it was so unlike anything I'd read before. R is one of my favorite characters, so eloquent in his head and frustrated by his predicament and lack of ability to communicate. There was a gentle humour and enough gore that kept me entertained. The pace speeds up as the book goes along but the slow start might frustrate some. I quite liked the amount of time we were given getting to know R's new world though.
The narrator isn't what I would have expected but sounded quite ethereal which I thought suited the pace and tone.

Zombie tale with a heart

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes this was a great book, not what i was expecting and a totally different ending than any other zombie book

Who was your favorite character and why?

R of course and his development throughout the book, love the concept of zombie development.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not 1 moment just the brilliant development and twist on a normal zombie book

Any additional comments?

From a vile all destructive zombie book which i love by the way, it twists through a nasty way into a love story with a massive twist at the end a really good listen.

Miles better than film!

A delightful story seen from the point of view of one young zombie, who tells the tale in the first person via his observations and ideas,as his language skills are virtually non existsnt. But he can still think. 'We may appear mindless, but we're not,' even if they, the other zombies, 'do a lot of standing around and groaning,' and ride the escalators several times a day. He has no memory of general history or of his own past, not even his name. He has no idea how long he has been as he is.

Having vicariously experienced another man's growing up and falling in love with Julie, when R. sees her in the flesh, he also loves and wants to protect her. So he escorts her home to the airfield where he and the others in his group hang out, and to the small plane in which he lives, hiding her away with the other treasures he's collected from the past. And somehow he intends to make it safe for her, save her and save the world

Kevin Kenerly narrates with such gentle skill, the emotional content glows through every word and helps transform the dead youth R into someone far more living in many other novels. His presentation is superb. Combined with the quirky characters and bizarre circumstances of the text, this is one extraordinary story of love which brings hope to the world. Suitable for young and old even those who have romance books. Recommended.

Warm Bodies is a fantastic story, and quite unique. I have seen the film and thought I'd see what the book was like. I was surprised how different it was. I would recommend this title.
The only fault is the chapters aren't separated when read aloud which made it difficult for me to stop listening and coming back to it later.

Fantastic story
