Finding diversity in zombie books isn’t always easy, especially if you’ve been finding book after book that seems to feature the same plotline and the same type of protagonist.
What if you want something different?
What if you’re looking for a story that stands out from the rest?
Looking for diverse zombie books is a fantastic way to find new and interesting things to enjoy while you’re reading.
You can find diversity in books by choosing stories with:
- POC main characters
- Characters with disabilities
- Characters with unique backstories
- Authors who are queer, BIPOC, or women
- And more
One of the best ways to diversify your reading is to start making a conscious effort to try to find something new and unique each month to read. Even if you love reading about a rugged mountain man with a can-do attitude, try picking up a book where the heroine uses a prosthetic leg. You could opt for a story about a deaf woman who has to survive the apocalypse on her own. Maybe you could choose a book where the main characters have been adopted.
There are many different ways to incorporate diversity into your reading.
That said, here are some of the best new zombie novels in November 2022.
