Helpful Score: 2


A hilarious, action-packed, fun-filled read from the introduction until the end. I really loved almost all of the stories in this anthology. There was only 1 that just didn't do it for me, a couple that were only ok, but the majority of the stories were absolutely fabulous. My favorites?

Favorite Zombie Story: The Children of the Revolution by Maureen Johnson. This story was hilarious, snarky, and all together wonderful. I was laughing the whole time I was reading it.

Favorite Unicorn Story: The Care and Feeding of Your Baby Killer Unicorn by Diana Peterfreund. I've been wanting to start this killer unicorn series after raves from Lori and Candace, and this just makes me want to read it even more. Scary, action-packed, and wonderful.

My favorite thing in the book had to be the back and forth banter between Holly and Justine before each story. They would each state their case, unicorn or zombie, and do a little argument about the upcoming story and the merits to their side of the war. These were so funny that I kept my husband up late the night I was reading it just to read each one of them to him...lol.

So, I guess the part we're all wondering is....where do I fall after reading this book?
Team Zombie or Team Unicorn
Since I love both types of stories I had to do a little work to really figure out which side of the fence that I fall on....
So, I rated each story as I went and added them up to see who would come out in the lead.
So, the part you've all been waiting for....
The score:

Unicorn - 21/30 stars
Zombie - 26/30 stars

Looks like I fall solidly into Team Zombie (sorry Holly, I really do love you and your rainbow-farting unicorns too!)
