Monsterland - Micheal Okon - GIVEAWAY!!!
5 Stars!
ABOUT THE BOOK -
The last couple years of high school have not been fun for Wyatt Baldwin. His parents divorce, then his dad mysteriously dies. He’s not exactly comfortable with his new stepfather, Carter White, either. An on-going debate with his best friends Howard Drucker and Melvin over which monster is superior has gotten stale. He’d much rather spend his days with beautiful and popular Jade. However, she’s dating the brash high-school quarterback Nolan, and Wyatt thinks he doesn’t stand a chance.
But everything changes when Wyatt and his friends are invited to attend the grand opening of Monsterland, a groundbreaking theme park where guests can rock out with vampires at Vampire Village, be chased by actual werewolves on the Werewolf River Run, and walk among the dead in Zombieville.
With real werewolves, vampires and zombies as the main attractions, what could possibly go wrong?

MY THOUGHTS -
Whoa! This book was awesome! Action, action, and more action! Seriously, not a dull page. This was probably one of the most original books of its kind that I have read. And, twisted person that I am, I've read a few.
Zombies, Werewolves, and Vampires do exist. People know they exist. But, instead of killing them or running from them - one twisted mind puts them in a theme park, behind bars and glass (like a zoo) for everyone to see. And that's where it all goes wrong, very wrong!
The thing is, you kind of feel sad for them because you get the view point of some of them, you get the perspective from "the monsters" behind the glass. The POV changes between several people (I love this in a book). There are a lot of characters, but there is such great character development you don't get them confused, at least I didn't and I am easily confused.
This book is just fun, yeah a little creepy (and a little graphic) but fun! A lot happening, but great writing makes it very easy to follow.
And... Great ending.
