The Girl with All the Gifts

Cordyceps turning people into zombies? Hell yeah, count me in. Really liked this novel. Great setting, interesting characters, classic themes, and a fitting ending.

My only gripe is that it relies heavily on tropes regarding treatment of infected and military. If it's your thing (and it is mostly my thing), this reads like a SyFy Channel original and that's evident in the movie adaptation. I strongly recommend reading the book before watching the movie.
