Today, I have with me my good friend Emma, who runs a blog called Booking Through 365.
Emma has graciously decided to answer a few questions about zombies. She is answering honestly, so please do not make fun of her. All of this is REAL. (heheheheh - yes real! *cough*)
Kristen: If you saw a zombie, what would your reaction be?
Emma: I'd probably stare and attempt to form words but fail. Kristen: Would you expect that zombie to be fast or slow?
Emma: Slow. It's more scary that way. Kristen: Let's say the zombie sees you, is headed right for you. What do you do?
Emma: Stay where I am and stammer Z-zom-zom-zom. Kristen: If you had a weapon near you, what would you prefer it to be in the case of needing to attack a zombie?
Emma: How are you supposed to kill a zombie? Probably a knife so I could behead it. Not sure if that would work, though.Kristen: Let's say this zombie is the HOTTEST zombie you've ever laid eyes on.. would you hesitate to behead it?
Emma: Probably, but only so I can stare at it a bit longer. Kristen: And what would you do if that HOT zombie laid a nice juicy wet kiss on your lips? (or rather dry and moldy...)
Emma: Accept the kiss and then stab it in the back. Literally. Kristen: Since we all know stabbing zombies in the back won't kill it... what would you do next.. since he's still quite attached to your lips?
Emma: Separate lips and behead. If that works. Or I'll do whatever works. Kristen: Alright, zombie dead. You look up and well, there's a dozen more zombies closing in. What's your first instinct?
Emma: Slap myself and scream WAKE UP. Kristen: And if that doesn't make them go away?
Emma: Drop to floor and go to fetal position. There's sounds of drooling grunts, a scream or two and then suddenly nothing. Kristen: *gulps* So, now, you're a zombie. What are you thinking?
Emma: Awesome. I get to eat brains. Kristen: What's your favorite kind of brains?
Emma: The massive kind. Yummyyyy. Kristen: Alright, now how many brains does it take to get to the center of a lolipop... I mean ... until you're satiated?
Emma: Depends on how long I've gone without feeding. Three on a good day, seven average, twelve when ravenous.Kristen: Alright, you've spotted a small human and a big human walking together, still live. What do you do?
Emma: Start with the big ones brains. Then fight off the small human. Kristen: Now, tough question here. Would you EVER slow dance with a human?
Emma: I wouldn't as a human, and I wouldn't as a zombie. Unless I was ravenous and slow dancing would distract it.Kristen: Brilliant of you. Thanks for those answers! *walks slowly away, throwing some sort of dead meat at the Emma zombie to distract her*
And there you go people, some zombies do retain some sort of basic human speech.. at least.. for the first few minutes.
*looks over her shoulder* Yeah, um.. gotta go peeps. *Runs as fast as she can from the horde of zombies*

Gabry lives a quiet life. As safe a life as is possible in a town trapped between a forest and the ocean, in a world teeming with the dead, who constantly hunger for those still living. She’s content on her side of the Barrier, happy to let her friends dream of the Dark City up the coast while she watches from the top of her lighthouse. But there are threats the Barrier cannot hold back. Threats like the secrets Gabry’s mother thought she left behind when she escaped from the Sisterhood and the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Like the cult of religious zealots who worship the dead. Like the stranger from the forest who seems to know Gabry. And suddenly, everything is changing. One reckless moment, and half of Gabry’s generation is dead, the other half imprisoned. Now Gabry only knows one thing: she must face the forest of her mother’s past in order to save herself and the one she loves.
