I didn't think this was a 5 star book until about halfway through.

The zombie story is entertaining, as zombie stories usually are. The reason for the zombification is believable, and also says something about the people involved. Also, this book is a little different from other zombie books: a lot of people don't get the virus. It's not an post-apocalyptic novel in that sense, then. There are plenty of folks still alive. There's a President and Vice President of the United States. People still have jobs, houses, daily lives. They just have this terrifying reality to deal with. And I liked that.

What I really enjoyed about this novel is the politics. I learned a lot about journalism and what is truly meant by ‘free speech.'
