Pride and Prejudice and Zombies?

[jeninflorida]

did anyone read this book?

No, but I saw it next to Zombie Haiku. It looked pretty funny. The few haiku I read were quite humerous. Here's one I remember:

I've always been told
Everything tastes like chicken
It really tastes like man.

I'm paraphrasing, as I don't have a photographic memory and I saw the book a few weeks ago. But, that was the gist of it. Pretty funny.

I first noticed the book at B&N, then last night at Costco ...

Seriously? This is a real book? Is it a series? Can I find, say, War and Peace and Zombies or Green Eggs and Ham and Zombies?

In the Voodoo religion, if a zombie tastes salt or meat, it remembers its previous existence and returns to the grave. See Baron Samedi.

It's a real book that's been a bit of a smash (a graveyard smash even, if you'll excuse the very bad pun) from what I've read. Haven't got round to reading it yet.

I think there's a followup in the works:

Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters.

Too funny. I hope the movie is good.

My daughter just re-read Pride and Prejudice and then the Zombies version. She said it was worth it for the comedy.

I'm not so sure.
