I was informed of it via twitter that it was spotted near the cashier and new books! Hurray!

With an inner page like that, I don&#8217;t know how you can&#8217;t resist reading it. The first line goes like this:<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><em>It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">Seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Although it <em>is<\/em> the classic story of P&amp;P I wouldn&#8217;t wish to spoil the story too much! It has zombies and yet it has interesting ninjas, violence and all sorts of kung fu-ery. Included in the book are illustrations of some scenes such as Elizabeth and her sisters in a formation to kill all the zombies while at a party.<\/p>\n<p>Currently I&#8217;m at the scene where Darcy has confessed his love to Elizabeth and she rejects him. I have no idea what&#8217;s going to happen in the end so we shall see. In any case, there&#8217;s plenty of summaries and reviews online too so I shall not divulge spoilers!<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s just so many quote worthy dialogue and actions in there and how characters start to die from attacks!<\/p>\n<p>If you like literature with a side of violent zombie fighting, <em>this<\/em> is the book for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is available in Singapore!
