Zombies vs. Unicorns is an anthology of stories focusing on well, zombies and unicorns. This book was written by a few of my favorite authors like Cassandra Clare, Maureen Johnson, and a few others. Though it was thought up by the brilliant Holly Black.
In this awesome book these authors are going head to head to answer this life long unanswered question, which are better? Zombies or Unicorns? They let you decide for yourself.
These authors are doing what they do best, writing amazing stories. They wrote either a short story about Zombies or Unicorns depending on what side they took.
Since its a range of authors with diffrent styles of writing this book will make you feel diffrent things depending on the story. Some will make you laugh, some will make you wanna cry because its just so moving, and others... well... they'll make you wanna hit someone out of pure fustration if your favorite author isn't taking your side. I'm going to be completly honest.
This book made me rethink my life a bit. Its completly changed how I feel about both Zombies and Unicorns. I have found a new found respect of zombies and I'm slightly terrified of Unicorns. If your interested in why I am or you just like the sound of this book,read "Zombies vs. Unicorns" and tell me what you think.

The Name of the Star
Holy
cheese-nuggets, that was the craziest/creepiest book I have ever read in life.
Okay for the record, I'm not easily scared, especially in books. Maureen
Johnson's 'The Name of the Star' had me want to keep all the lights on and
check under everything before going to bed. I mean, it probably didn't help the
fact that I had all the lights off, sitting in my closet reading, but...
whatever.
So not only do you the struggle of living in a new place, but you
also have a murder on the loose mimicking the Jack the Ripper murders all the
way back from 1888.Just like all that long time ago, no one can solve the
mystery of who's killing these people. The crazy part is, there are cameras
everywhere and the police know where and when these murders will take place. To
make the welcome wagon even better for Rory Deveaux (currently from Louisiana,
now living in London, England) has spotted the murderer. Who by the way, knows
she saw him. The bad thing about that is it’s like she's crying wolf because
she's the only one who can see him.
This book was unbelievable. If you're into chilling, edge of your
seat, I'll be late to school/work if I don't put this thing down mysteries this
one is for you. I'd give this book 8 out of 5 stars just on the fact alone, Ill
still have goose bumps. What more could anyone ask for?
