February 8 Book Club Meeting: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame-Smith

The next Book Club Pick is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame-Smith. All are welcome to join in the discussion after school on Thursday, February 8. If you need a copy of the book, talk to Ms. Charpentier or visit the Uxbridge Free Public Library.

From Goodreads: "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains. So begins this expanded edition of the beloved Jane Austen novel featuring all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie mayhem. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she’s soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield. Can Elizabeth vanquish the spawn of Satan? And overcome the social prejudices of the class-conscious landed gentry?"
