Zombie Tag
Zombie Tag by Hannah Moskowitz
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Honestly I had issues with this one. It had some interesting ideas and a dark topic, thirteen-year-old Wil Lowenstein has lost his brother and has invented a game called zombie tag to cope. But this is also a world where magical things are real and he can (and does) bring back his brother but zombies aren't what the living once were.
I think my issue with it was, Wil's a bit obnoxious but I could have dealt with that. Thirteen year olds often are. The bigger issues was Moskowitz breaks her own world building's rules. She has the idea that time travel is/can be real so then that begs the question why in the world would you bring back your brother as a zombie instead of just going back in time to rescue him? Young readers are sophisticated enough to be wondering that same thing.
