The Princess and the Zomb-Pea-Goodreads
These are tiny and adorable – except for the mouldy bits! because this was a novella of novellas there’s really not much to be said so I’ll just be putting down what I thought at the end of each story.
Zombie Cinderella
This was the longest story. It had a little more of an introduction than the others. We’re given more of a why about Cinder. I love that her untimely demise didn’t stop her HEA!
Mouldy-locks and the Three Bears
Haha, this was fantastic! What a twist!
Sleeping Zom-Beauty
Goodness me, what a close one! She got the best out of that deal I feel. Any other option would have been unbearable And it’s adorable that he knew she’d like his brains…
Beauty & The Zom-Beast
Aww no!! I didn’t like this one! that’s awful.
Little Red Rotting Hood
I wondered if this would have a mouldy Locks twist. I kind of wish this had gone the other way. Irony.
Rapunzombel
Bahaha this one was brilliant! and the shortest. Understandably…
The Princess and the Zomb-Pea
Some mother in laws rightly deserve the fear…this one was just an idiot.
This novella was thoroughly amusing and not really horrifying. Perhaps because I was nice and safe in my well lit room? Some felt like they were just rushed through, others were pretty clever. A nice little Halloweeny read right enough.
