The Girl with All the Gifts

OK when I picked this up I didn't really realize it was zombies?? I am nottt a big zombie fan. To be honest whenever I think about these kinds of zombie apocalypse scenarios mostly all I can think of is, “I think if this ever happens, I'll just kill myself,” and I spend the whole book having low-grade suicidal ideations. This was no exception, really. Kudos to all these characters for facing the zombie apocalypse in their own human ways.

Anyway, I still enjoyed it–very fast-paced and interesting, not too much gross gore stuff (I had to skip a long description of cat-eating tho), and I loved the ending.

We have this shelved in adult but I think it would definitely have appeal to teen zombie lovers, and it's nothing too scandalous to recommend to them in good conscience. Certainly less graphic than the Walking Dead, etc (which we also have shelved in adult but which teens looove).
