The lightbox works as promised; it arrived well packaged and in a timely manner. It is portable, thin, fits easily in a pad of sketchbook paper, bright enough to easily trace through a sheet or two of sketchbook paper, and is easy to turn off and on. I also discovered that the USB cord plugs into a standard electrical outlet converter (like you get with your computer). It is a basic light box that is perfect for my needs, but it is not fancy....there are no controls on the strength of the light, but for tracing through one or two sheets of standard width paper, it works great.Tags : Never Slow Dance With a Zombie [E.

Never Slow Dance With a Zombie E Van Lowe 9780765320407 Books Reviews
I was so excited when I found this Zombie book! There were so many things I loved when I first saw it. The cover had the perfectly creepy, yet still appealing zombie boy on the cover wearing vintage prom clothes. The title spoke very clearly to the humorous tone of the book. And the blurb itself was very appealing. Normally I'm a guts and gore type of Zombie girl, but this just seemed like the kind of Shaun of the Dead style story that I couldn't resist.
The opening was good, and it was easy to see why an agent or editor would keep reading. The main character, Margot and her best friend, Sybil, are quickly established and fleshed out ;-) The girls have an honestly refreshing friendship that feels real, well, for a while at least.
The action starts fairly quickly, although some of it was pretty predictable. The predictability continued as the story progressed and for me the character of Margot just seemed to flop after a bit. I couldn't wrap my head around her reasoning behind some of her actions. This is what truly kept me from being absorbed into the story. I could take some of the unexplained acceptance the girls have of the zombies, and even the obvious plot turning points, but Margot becomes completely obsessed with the idea of popularity to the point of nearly getting herself and her best friend killed. And even then she doesn't learn her lesson. It's only when she learns that the popular bitch is as one dimensional as herself that she realizes what she's doing is crazy. That's when the pace of the book really picks up and Lowe wraps up the story in a few more pages.
Overall, it was a fun read, but not enough blood and gore for me (NONE!), and even the knowledge that it's a humorous approach to zombies, it was just too unbelievable light.
This is a terrible book. It as if the author read a style guide on teen fiction, watched an episode of Buffy and looked up zombies on wikipedia and mashed out a tedious, nonsensical screenplay that was rejected by the WB and then was further corrupted into a facsimile of a novel. Nothing really makes sense, the characters fail to reach even 2 dimmensions. I give it one star because it does attempt a little humor on occasion, but frankly it would embarrass an ABC afterschool special. And its worst sin is not that it is nonsensical, clunky and insulting to your intelligence, but that it is fundamentally trite.
Never Slow Dance With A Zombie is a super cute *arghhh* (sorry that was supposed to be a zombie growl, but it sounds more like a pirate hehe) zombie novel. E. Van Lowe's writing is funny which makes it a fun, fast paced read. I liked most of the characters, except with the exception of one. The main character Margot starts out being a self-centered brat that only cares about being popular, being invited to parties and getting a boyfriend. It seems like her whole life revolved around a manifesto list which she created that includes those wants and more. My favorite character would have to be Sybil, she is a sweet, caring girl that wants nothing more than her best friend Margot to be happy. If only Margot could see that right, or does she?...hmmm, don't want to give that away. To sum it up a little...one day Margot and Sybil go to school and pretty much 90% of the student body are turned into zombies for the exception of a few classmates, the principal and gym teacher. At first I was a little confused because their was no explanation to why this occurred, but as I read it all the answers were eventually revealed. I also enjoyed how E. Van Lowe used different, unique names for his characters instead of the cliche names found in books today. Overall, a very cute read and I definitely recommend it if you're a zombie lover! Grrrargh...is that more zombie like?
