I will be honest with you: I did not expect to enjoy this book nearly as much as I did.
I’m not a horror novel junkie, but I do like zombies (even though reading zombie books makes me low-key scared of the dark). I don’t enjoy being scared while reading, but there’s something about zombie novels that makes being scared fun. So I enjoy them, but I can’t read too many of them, or I’ll start to get paranoid.
A fellow reader recommended this series, and, when I saw the first book at the library, I picked it up, hoping it would be good.
And it was more than good. That first sentence is probably my favorite first sentence ever. (And no, I won’t tell you what it is; read the book and find out for yourselves.
