The fact that Tyler and I can spend and entire hour talking about how much we love this book, years after we first read it, says something about how much I love it.Too bad the movie has nothing to do with the book and is going to be terrible. Such a wasted opportunity.

Reads like a history book, which makes sense cause it is a fictional history of the zombie war. Interesting and believable accounts of combat with zombies.
