I've been postponing this review for so long, I've almost forgotten what the book is about. 
 Actually, I could not possibly forget it, first of all because Dearly, Departed was yet another proof that zombies can be absurdly entertaining and then also because, well, I really liked the book. 
 The main flaw was, in my opinion, the ever-changing POV. Whereas I was enthralled by the two main character's storylines, I found the others' adventures not very interesting, if not downright irritating. I really hope the author will give more space to the central couple in the next installment, which, by the way, I'm definitely going to read. 
 The plot was original and refreshing, and I especially liked how Bram's character was presented, not just highlighting his qualities but examining him in his entirety. Pretty good was also the transformation Nora goes through during the whole book, and how she came to become a different, grown and more responsible lady. 
 I really enjoyed all the parts that took place in the army context and the general soldier-y air that permeated the whole narration. 
 I'm really looking forward to see how the story will play itself out and I hope to see more of Bram's friends in the next installments.
