Dead Inside: Do Not Enter: Notes from the Zombie Apocalypse Paperback – September 21, 2011

I first came across this book in a Hastings a few years ago and meant to return to purchase it a few days later. When I got to the store, it was gone, and now it makes sense. This book is fantastic. Its premise is that it is a collection of notes found before and during a zombie apocalypse. It is different from most other zombie-themed books in that it shows a scarily visceral aspect to it. The fear is seen in the sloppy handwriting of various characters, some recurring and others lost after the first sighting. The uncertainty is almost tangible. It creates this immersive world without a single depiction of a zombie, and it is such a refreshing change from what the zombie business normally churns out. The quality of the scans is impressive. Some of them are so high quality that you can see the pressure depth of the ballpoint pen.This book is a must-have for any zombie lover. Even if you've only seen like, one episode of The Walking Dead and thought it was just okay, you will love this book. I keep it on my coffee table because it's a great conversation piece and can be read again and again.

I really enjoyed reading this and will pass it on to someone else to enjoy. Recommended if you enjoy the zombie genre.This is the first real book I’ve bought in over a decade but I thought this story would be better told with a physical copy of the book and I’m so glad I did. My biggest gripe with ebooks is that is so hard to navigate to different pages quickly not the case with a “real” book. I don’t know how the kindle version looks but I think the book may be diminished and pale in comparison to the actual bound book.As for price I paid about the digital price and received a great used book please note you will have to wait a bit for the shipping but I received it much sooner than the expected arrival date. I think it took about a week to get it.

This was a bit different than I expected, but turned out to be a positive in the end. As a purchase for my teenager, this was a great fit for his zombie fanatic self. He enjoyed reading through the notes and bits of information to see if he could discover any hidden clues or secrets to the book. He liked that this seemed like things you might really find, left behind in a zombie attack situation.I read this myself, as I often do with books I am not quite sure about giving to the kids. The names, dates, pieces and parts gave it a more real feeling with raw emotion that you could feel in the pages. I like that this was created by different people with unique viewpoints from across the world. Each bit and part lends a new view on how things were perceived by different people. This gave it an even more realistic feel to it, making it seem like a scrapbook you would find in the aftermath..if anyone survived to make one that is.My only complaint is that I would have liked to see more. I got into the book and then it was over. It would have been that much better had it been longer, and with more little bits of horror to page through.

I really enjoy zombie apocalypse things so I was super excited to read this. If you're looking for a story though this isn't the book. It is however a collection of interesting notes for the what if a zombie apocalypse did happen. I think it's interesting to think about what people would write if that happened and what they would right on while trying to survive, so if you feel the same go for it. My only real issue is I don't feel the content warrants the price. If I knew at purchase time what the book contained I would have gave $2-3 for it at most.

This book was outstanding! I usually feel kind of cheated when I read a book that is rather short and still expensive compared to others but not this time.It wasn't long enough and left me wishing for more. You will smirk at some of the notes and cry at others. The actual book is a collection of notes and letters that were written by people all over the world just like they were actually living through a zombie apocalypse. Some are incomplete (torn paper), some are are scratch paper, and some are written by children. Love the concept and the execution is amazing.Note: Do not try to read this on your phone - if you do not have a kindle, download the app to your computer as you won't be able to read it correctly otherwise.

If you're interested in zombie apocalypse literature -- as a writer, fan, or cosplay enthusiast -- include this book on your reading list. The notes in this book cover the full spectrum of "what if" topics related to zombies, and perhaps apocalypses, in general.As a writer, I kept saying, "Wow. I never thought of that aspect of a zombie outbreak." This book portrays the very human side of the story, in greater -- sometimes far more poignant -- depth than you'd guess, on first glance.Every page tells a story, in just a few words.Do not overlook this book because it seems merely cute or funny or gimmicky. Especially for writers working in the zombie genre, this is a tremendous resource.

This book is a work of pure genius! Its a mix of art, literature and pure creative juice with all the bits!! For those who don't know this book was actually a collaboration between dozens of likeminded zombie fans via the site lostzombies.com - look out for their up and coming documentary like this book it will be an epic combination of talents! everyone knows someone who will LOVE THIS BOOK! I was sooooo chuffed when mine finally arrived! i even posted a photo on their site of me with my copy!! : ) BUY ONE!!
