I can't even begin to describe how much I loved this book. I didn't know what to expect with this book. I thought it might be a creepy, demented version of Alice in Wonderland, but was happily surprised. Don't be expecting what I originally thought. This book is something all on its own. Ms. Showalter takes us on an exciting ride of a new kind of zombie, a kick-butt heroine, and a drool-worthy love interest. 
 Ali is an amazing protagonist. She is snarky, sarcastic, and tough. Exactly what I like. Where most girls would stay locked in a house if they see something creepy outside their window, Ali goes charging outside to see what it is, and if she can fight it off. There's no holding back with her, and I really appreciated that. She jumps into the action right away, and doesn't want to give up. 
 Kat is hilarious! I absolutely LOVED her. Every girl should have a friend like Kat...true story ;) She was that character that always said the right thing at the right time. That one thing that helps bring humor to your life, and the story. My favorite line..."She's so snotty, you need Kleenex to talk to her." I've actually used this line to describe a girl I know to my friend! Every scene Kat was in, she brought a special kind of light. She is just awesome! 
 Now Cole...what can I say about Cole? Ummm...I think I love him haha. Even though I usually don't like the super-protective-almost-possessive- type of love interest, I loved how protective he was of Ali. He was sweet, caring, and you could easily tell how much he loved Ali. The passion between them is hot and sizzling. 
 Most of all, I absolutely adore the cover of this book. This cover is one of the most gorgeous covers I have ever seen, and is one of the first things that drew me to the book. I can't wait to see what the next book looks like. I'll definitely be seeing where the story goes because I know it will be another showstopper.
