Marco Marino marcomarino1991 — Characters lack depth and it's pretty ridiculously un-PC, but the quality of the writing is excellent and it's hard to put down. Okay, it would probably be easier to put down if I wasn't white.

Alejandro Trevino aletstrevibf25 — I picked this up because my friend Chelsea talked about it and I, too, cannot resist trying a book with a Jane Austen hook (except the zombies one). I thought this was rather cute and clever, although I can see why Chelsea said she was disappointed--I think I was rather glad actually, that this did not take place at the Austen-created Longbourn. Given the setting, it made a lot more sense to channel Agatha Christie heavily along with the obvious Jane Austen references, even including the ones to Bridget Jones' Diary and author Elizabeth Peters' series featuring Amelia Peabody. I've seen a review that mentions a Miss Marple story, but none that reference the Poirot novels that tell you who exactly the murderer is. If you know your Agatha Christie, you will know what I mean. In case you are interested and don't mind spoilers, here are the books and scenes for which I found references and ultimately the solution. I'm sure there are more, so maybe you could add to this list! Anyway, I would recommend this book to mystery lovers, and if the readers know Jane Austen and Agatha Christie, they'll like it even more. **SPOILER ALERT** Pride and Prejudice: Henry & Joan Anderson = Mr. Collins & Charlotte; Mrs. Kristell Dubois & the cat = Lady Catherine; Elizabeth and Peter's relationship. Mansfield Park: having semi-private theatricals. Northanger Abbey: Elizabeth's finding acorns instead of clues. Emma: Daniel Simms = Frank Churchill. OR Bridget Jones' Diary: Daniel Simms = Daniel Cleaver; Elizabeth's roommate Bridget and boyfriend Colin (as in Colin Firth); also Elizabeth's ex-boyfriend Mark (as in Mark Darcy). A Murder Is Announced: people gather expecting a "murder"; lights go out and someone gets shot; a close relative masquerades as another. The A.B.C. Murders: hiding the "main" murder with another. Death on the Nile: Linnet steals Jackie's boyfriend; Jackie murders Linnet (same names in both books). Elizabeth Peters books: the names "Elizabeth" and "Peter" Cute! Elizabeth & Peter's relationship could also be a Beatrice & Benedick relationship: they have known one another a long time; they squabble whenever they meet; they secretly like each other; they need an outside agent (or two) to get them to admit their feelings for one another. But in this book, the development of Elizabeth's love for Peter is sparse. It could use a little beefing up to make it more realistic.
