When I first heard of this book, I thought it might be your typical zombie novel. I was wrong. Of course there are zombies. In this version, they are mindless and slow moving. Everyone is already technically infected and so if you die in any manner, you need to be "quieted" or you will be come a zom...

There is nothing WRONG with this book. I just could not finish it because I have hit a brick wall in reading. I do not know what is wrong with me.

You know, I really love Zombie books. But you know what else? I really love alternative zombie books. Books where an old monster is tackled in a unique way. In Warm Bodies we got R, the zombie with a soul. (Don't ask. Just read it. Amazing book.) That had never been done before, at least that I'm aw...

A good zombie story. These zombies don't seem to be quite as violent.
