The Tattered Page: Bookish Quiz : How Long Would You Survive a Zombie Apocalypse?

*Bookish Quiz is a meme hosted by The Tattered Page to share bookish quizzes found and personal results*

Hey Bookies!

So, in the interest of paying homage to the release day Justina Irealand's Dread Nation, Epic Reads came up with a bookish quiz with the same zombie theme.

Dread Nation released on April 3, 2018 and you can purchase it on most bookish sites or Amazon.

Synopsis:

Jane McKeene was born two days before the dead began to walk the battlefields of Gettysburg and Chancellorsville—derailing the War Between the States and changing America forever. In this new nation, safety for all depends on the work of a few, and laws like the Native and Negro Reeducation Act require certain children attend combat schools to learn to put down the dead. But there are also opportunities—and Jane is studying to become an Attendant, trained in both weaponry and etiquette to protect the well-to-do. It’s a chance for a better life for Negro girls like Jane. After all, not even being the daughter of a wealthy white Southern woman could save her from society’s expectations.

But that’s not a life Jane wants. Almost finished with her education at Miss Preston’s School of Combat in Baltimore, Jane is set on returning to her Kentucky home and doesn’t pay much mind to the politics of the eastern cities, with their talk of returning America to the glory of its days before the dead rose. But when families around Baltimore County begin to go missing, Jane is caught in the middle of a conspiracy, one that finds her in a desperate fight for her life against some powerful enemies. And the restless dead, it would seem, are the least of her problems.

Here's a snippet from Epic Reads regarding the quiz:

If you haven’t gotten on the DREAD NATION hype train yet, you really need to read that book and board it, stat. Not only is it a super clever, alternate history look at social and racial divisions, but it’s also super epic and action-packed. Because this world began anew when the dead rose from the battlefields of the Civil War. Seriously, DREAD NATION is clever and brutal in all the best ways.

But it’s not alone! Other zombified YA—like the searing DEVILS UNTO DUST—have us really wondering… do we have what it takes to survive in a world teaming with zombies? Can we take on the shamblers from DREAD NATION and live to tell the tale?

If you need some help before you dive into this, we have a handy little post all about the etiquette of shambler killing right here. Study up, because this is life or death!
