Ok, now for the serious stuff. This wasn’t a bad book but for some reason it didn’t grab me until about half way through. I did enjoy the characters but something was keeping me from falling totally in love with this.The plot is solid and very creepy. It starts and they are in a ship, that can never be good! But I think it happened too fast. They got out too easily. I mean yes, they did have to fight a bit but not too much really. Then they get to the school and it’s all normal stuff again. The characters are going through this cataclysmic event and the cheerleaders are still in a clique and the freaking class president, omg, someone please kill her, even if she isn’t a zombie. Just kill her!Donna I really liked. She seemed down to earth even with all the weird crap going on. Zombies, voices in her head, hormones and she still has her crap together, well sorta. And Deke was really cool. Although, I did go through a few moments where I wasn’t sure if I wanted Donna to end up with Liam or not but he seemed really strange to me. So, as I’m getting to read about all these characters and all this weird stuff is going on, I found that I wasn’t into it as much as I normally am.But then the stuff really started happening, that jolt that gets your heart beating fast and I remembered why I love books like this. There’s definitely some gore but not overly, and there’s a few hints at romance cause really, we can’t have a zombiepocalypse without people making out! And there are some awesome twists along the way also. Which I just loved!What I liked most was the ending. How Alison was able to bring stuff around and make it all work was awesome. Totally worth reading and I am really hoping there is going to be a book two! I’ll be first in line!3.5/5 Received by author for an honest review.
