Book Review of: Forest of Hands and Teeth

   "The Forest of Hands and Teeth" By: Carrie Ryan.  Mary is learning things that she didn't know she would have to learn. The unconsecrated and humans have been battling for a while now. When the unconsecrated break down the fence that has been dividing them for years all hell breaks loose. It is basically an all out war.  When the fence is breached and her world is thrown into chaos, she must choose between her village and her future-between the one she loves and the one who loves her. The Major conflict in the story was when the fence was breached (the fence is a big fence that divided the zombie's from the village. And basically her life turned into a big war for survival. 
        I liked this book a lot because it made you think and wonder about this story, I could very easily figure out what was going on in my head. I was one of those books where I can picture what is going on in my head like an image of the Zombies braking down the fence and attacking the village.  
        I would recommend this book to sci-fi fans, teens and series lovers. There are three books to this series #1"The Forest of Hands and Teeth"#2 The Dead-Tossed Waves" #3 The Dark and Hollow Places. And just like with every other book I would recommend reading "The Forest of Hands and Teeth first before you read the second or third book of the series because then you will not understand it at all. 


This Book has 310 Pages it is a long book (for me) but I would recommend it. (at least it isn't a 750+ pages like Harry Potter of Twilight.     


Quote from book: "It's not about surviving. It should be about love. When you know love...that's what makes this life worth it. When you live with it everyday. Wake up with it, hold on to it during the thunder and after a nightmare. When love is your refuge from the death that surrounds us all and when it fills you so tight that you can't express it."

Marriage

1. Marriage back then was very similar to todays marriage.


2. Elizabethan women did not have a very big choice in husbands.


3. In Elizabethan times Marriage was basically a forced necessity for men and women to get married.


4. Only the rich and noble women got a good education but poor (not wealthy) women did not get an education. Which made men interested in the women who where educated.


5. Women who did not marry where considered witches by there neighbors and lower class women.


6. Women back in the Elizabethan time were taught that men where more intelligent than women.
