I never thought I'd say this about a zombie novel, but this was seriously one if the sweetest books ever! R was so endearing, so genuine--and he was a zombie! I loved his voice, I loved the world, I loved just about everything. 
 The only thing holding me back on rating this higher was because there were times when I felt like things didn't quite flow, were confusing, or I just felt too distant from R. I can't really point out when or where it happened, I just remember feeling it. 
 All in all, I really enjoyed this novel.
