This book reminds me of so many movies. It’s Thelma & Louise meets Mr & Mrs Smith meets Pulp Fiction meets The Killer meets The Day of the Triffids.
It’s something of a Bullet Ballet with two very cool heroines killing zombies in just about every way imaginable. Everything from bull bars to shovels and of course bullets. There is so much carnage in this book that it becomes cartoonish which is pretty much par for the course with zombies.
It’s over the top, up in your face, and pretty damned funny.

I think one of my nieces may have showed me an episode on DVD....I don't really watch all that much TV...come to think of it the last TV show I watched was Bunheads episode 5.

Hmm....I don't think this matters. One of the women is bisexual. She was in a same sex marriage but that doesn't really come into this series.
There is a bit of romance but not for a while....maybe not till the second book, but it's awesome!
