Genre theory explores the recurrent discursive forms through which communities constitute themselves.

Book review about "Zombies in Tokyo."

Book Review

      I read a book titled "Zombies in Tokyo." This book was written by Andy Boon and published from Atama-ii Books in 2014. This is a story about a zombie attack in Tokyo. The main character was living in Tokyo, and she was getting tired of living same life every single day because there were no interesting things in life.
     One morning, something was different, and there were nobody in the street and everything was changed! She was so surprised. When she went  to the station, a woman was lying on the ground. Then she met a young family.The father's name was Maru, and mother's name was Yoko, and the little boy was Kei. She was tying to help that woman but Maru said that "This woman was bitten by zombie so we cannot save her." In addition, Maru said  to her that people became zombies and we have to go to west to escape. She decided to she's going to escape with them. 
     However, on the way to west, Kei  was bitten by zombie unfortunately. The main character decided to leave the family. She didn't want to leave them but she knew that Kei will become a zombie soon. In the end of this story, the main character found an empty temple and food to eat. She was safe, but she was alone. This is not so happy end but I really enjoyed this adventure book and the style of choose own adventure stories.
