Found out the tracklisting of the "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" movie score by Fernando Velazquez and it's looks a but spoilery. I mean judging from what little I've seen there's stuff in the movie that wasn't in the book and I can't wait to see it.

The one thing I hate about the "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" audiobook (it's of the deluxe version. Is that the narrator is constantly shortening sentences or leaving them out altogether ! And it's supposed to be the unabridged version. That is why I've never finished listening to it. I wanted to hear my favorite bits or favorite lines only to have them disappear or cut short it just pisses med off but at least I get to hear Seth(?) narrate his "Preface to the Deluxe Edition"

Also in the movie-cover edition of PPZ theres the illustrations from the deluxe version but sadly in black and white only.

In the Appendix there's the Afterword, the "Reader's Discussion Guide" and the newly added (I think) "Why England?: A Sermon by Rev. Richard Manville" on why was England the only country in the world that was covered in Unmentionables. And if you were lucky enough to find it at Walmart you'd get a free mini-poster within the book as well.

I've loved this book ever since it was released and I have a decent collection of PPZ things. an 2011 calender, the graphic novel, the original edition of PPZ, the prequel and the sequel (which don't quite mesh with the canon from the original book, but mesh well with each other) and the Deluxe heirloom edition and the ebooks for all 4 (but not the graphic novel) and the audiobook as I've mentioned before. There's probably with bigger collections but I'm proud of mine.

Reading "Dawn of the Dreadfuls" (prequel to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) which was released yesterday and after 5 chapters I'm stopping for now (not that I want to) to take in a couple of laps over at the track over at the local soccer fields. It's about 66 degrees and it's nice enough for a walk. then once I return home I'll resume reading while I wait for the rest of the "Celebrity Skin" album to finish downloading (I suppose my love of "Drown Soda", "Violet" and their cover of "Gold Dust Woman" is to blame for the purchase)
forgottenbennet: (Mary Bennet -Talulah Riley)
With any luck by this time tomorrow I'll be reading Dawn of the Dreadfuls, the "prequel" novel to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I don't care what so many Austen bloggers (meaning the most of the Austen blogs out there, not just the one with the AB name) I thoroughly enjoyed PPZ, and PPZ: TDE (The Deluxe Edition) I can't wait to get my paws on dawn of the Dreadfuls. The way I see it I think Jane herself would be quite amused at the Austen Monster mashers (what I call the "crossovers").

Now Wal-Mart has been stocking the Quirk Classics books ever since PPZ became a huge bestseller. So I'm hoping that DotD will be there tomorrow, or not I will not be pleased!

And of course I do wish that there were more novels about Mary Bennet (as a sort of sequel to P&P) that appealed to me, so far I've not seen a one that has truly piqued my interest. *grumbles*

On the backside sticker on the book Pride and Prejudice and Zombie (Deluxe Edition). It was thankfully was removable (as it said at the very bottom) because it was filthy!

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters

Honestly one of the funnest batches I've ever made. Now if only more people would scan in more illustrations from these books (especially the Deluxe edition from PPZ once it comes out) Some of these are overlapping previous entries but I added them anyway to pad out this batch. Sadly it's still rather small.


1. 2. 3.
4. 5.

I tried making icons out of the black and white illustration but they ended up being way fuzzy so I trashed them
