A series of diary entries through the eyes of a little girl as she tries to survive the end of the world.
This book is entirely from the viewpoint of a little girl writing to her diary. You meet Kellie, a bright and inquisitive young girl living the typical suburban life with her family; she goes to school, complains about lunch, and thinks boys are gross. She also writes daily entries into her diary, whom she calls "Barbie." However, her world is turned upside down when a strange illness takes over the city. During a massive outbreak, Kellie finds herself completely alone and stranded at school. She must find her way out and figure out how to get home, braving the dangers of the "monsters" that have taken over... all the while telling "Barbie" what is going on and what she's thinking.
Follow Kellie's journey as she ventures out into the world, braving dangers of all kinds, both natural and unnatural, expected and surprising. She must learn to survive based on her own wits, and she will also learn which instincts she should trust.
A great read for fans of zombie fiction like The Walking Dead.
Reviews (from parts 1-3)
"Surrealistic and haunting, this story gets under the skin like a virulent infection... Jenner's slightly twisted yet subtle narrative as seen through Kellie's innocent eyes is compelling..." - George Wier, Mystery Author
"Be prepared... it is quite sad seeing all the death and destruction through a child's eyes, but I'm telling you it is worth it in the end." - Blood, Sweat & Books
"The simple style this story is presented in sometimes tricks you into taking it at face value; but it's the reading between the lines that gives you the full sense of horror in the world around the main character." - Reviewer "zombie"
Kellie Diary Decay of Innocence eBook Thomas Jenner Angeline Perkins
Kellie's Diary is the story of the zombie apocalypse told from the viewpoint of a girl around the age of 10 years old. This book includes Parts 1,2, and 3 of her story (Part 1 which I had already read) that reveal her losing her parents (and supposedly her sister) and a search to discover them all the while figuring out how to survive. During her search, she runs into a questionable man, Dr. Crane, that appears to want to help her but ends up abusing her and causing her to lose a bit of her innocence in the process. Once she escapes the clutches of Dr Crane she discovers a community of people that managed to create a life for themselves despite the existence of zombies (similar to The Walking Dead). Within the community, she actually finds her sister Lydia and learns she was saved by a community member, Sarah, during the beginning of the outbreak. The community encounters a few problems along the way, one the harsher ones being a fire set within the compound attracting a flood of zombies that overruns the community forcing them to flee.A small band of people from the community join together, along with Kellie and her sister Lydia, to seek out supplies to live on and another place to reside safely. Upon checking out a store for food and water, the group runs into two men who appeared agreeable enough and revealed they had access to a train that was converted into a living environment that housed a whole community of people. Although the men seemed eager enough to reveal the existence of the train, they refused the small party admittance onto the train. Anger developed, and for whatever reason the two men decided to attempt to kidnap the two young girls, proving pointless because it just got them shot in the head.
This portion of her diary ended with the smaller party racing to the location of the train, and trying to obtain access to boarding the train. Although the leader was ambivalent, with a horde of zombies right on the groups tail there wasn't too much to be done apart from taking the group on board and figuring out what to do with them afterward.
Although the writing from the perspective of a child can become tiring, the action included keeps the reader engaged to want to find out what happens next. There were many portions of the diary that would actually be better as a short film, or a mini series simply because seeing would be a little more captivating then reading.
The author also opted to include two short stories expanding on the lives of two characters: Sarah (the caretaker of Kellie and Lydia), and Dr. Crane (the manic child psychologist that abuses Kellie). Both stories help add a lot to Kellie's Diary entries by providing a sense of what happened before they met Kellie as well as how all the characters are intertwined with one another.
Definitely an interesting zombie adventure.

Kellie Diary Decay of Innocence eBook Thomas Jenner Angeline Perkins Reviews
I picked up the first installment of Kellie's Diary on one of my insomnia nights while looking for a quick free read. After the first book I was hooked so when I saw all three books together with some extra exposition, I had to give it a try. The Decay of Innocence was converted to regular format to be easier for e-readers, rather than each page as a graphic image, which I appreciate. This makes me think of The Walking Dead and World War Z all wrapped into one. At first glance Kellie's Diary appears to be for 'tweens, however once you get into the story there are so many more layers. In fact I would recommend parents preview the book ass some of the subject matter is rather deep and disturbing. I enjoyed what I've read so far and look forward to the next book. Good job!
I was drawn to this book based on the synopsis; the idea of a young child surviving the zombie apocalypse. However, BEWARE SPOILERS FOLLOW, this is more a story of child abuse. It's not described detail by detail but you get the idea as you keep reading and Kellie reveals more and more. I had trouble keeping my attention on the book as I was reading, it was a bit more vague than I cared for. It's very dark and sad. Althought it is told in Kellie's own words, I can't help but feel that blocks of time were missing. I get that she didn't write to Barbie everyday but it felt as though it jumped several months/years and because it doesn't keep you from being distracted while reading I ended up feeling rather lost. It's not a shelf keeper, for me, and I won't read the third set of diaries when they come out. This volume is the best of the two released currently.
I think God took all the good people away. If there is a God. I'm not so sure anymore. Wait, will I go to hell for thinking that way?
-- Decay of Innocence
When the Dead walk the Earth, the REAL demons emerge...
-- Death of Innocence
First, I need to point out that these books were originally published as 6 separate graphic novels, Kellie's Diary #1-6. Then they were published as two compilations. Kellie's Diary - Decay of Innocence (Kellie's Diary #1-3) and Kellie's Diary - Death of Innocence (Kellie's Diary #4-6). I was confused about this and ended up buying Kellie's Diary #2 after reading Decay of Innocence. When I started reading, I was like, wait I already read this.. I eventually figured it out. Looking back, I don't know what confused me so much.
Decay of Innocence starts off in January of 1993. At the start of the book, Kellie is 9-years old and she is living a fairly normal life. Gradually, we hear that more and more people are getting sick. By Chapter 5, we realize that something is terribly wrong. Kellie is stuck by herself at school and trying to escape the zombies.
Kellie is very smart and resourceful, even though she doesn't seem to know anything about zombies. Her first goal is to get to her house. Once there, when she doesn't find her family, her goal is to get to Oregon (to where her grandfather lives). She is hoping to find someone from her family alive.
Throughout the series, Kellie is very strong and does what she needs to in order to survive. She protects those she loves and tries to protect herself as well. She meets many people along the way, some good and some bad. And it seems like the zombies are not the worst thing left in this scary world.
I enjoyed this series very much. I started reading the Decay of Innocence during the Readathon last Saturday and when I finished, I immediately bought Death of Innocence and kept going. It was hard to read about the abuse Kellie suffered. No child should be forced to deal with such evil. It was interesting to read about the zombie apocalypse from a child's point of view (a child who manages to survive on her own for quite a while).
Recommended to
Fans of graphic novels and apocalyptic stories. This is definitely an adult book. There is a lot of graphic violence including child abuse and sexual abuse.
