I was pleasantly surprised by this book! 
 First off, I would like to point out that the blurb makes it sound like an epic romance but it is not. There is a very sweet romance but it is not the only part of the story. 
 Habel has managed some great world-building, the dystopian society that is created is really interesting and she describes it in detail, not skimming over things as some YA authors tend to do. There is political conflict, government cover-ups and people blowing up zombies with guns. The disease is also explained, not just put out there for us to blindly accept. While I will say that the second half of the book was much better for me, slow starts always get under my skin, the whole book was immensely enjoyable. 
 "Real ladies can give orders, Real gentlemen can take them, and Real zombies don't eat brains." 
 Habel writes in such a humorous, witty way. Not just in the dialogue, either. She makes such subtle jabs and jokes that once or twice I actually had to reread a few lines to get it. She had me grinning like a loon (by the way, is there anything more awkward than grinning like a loon at your book when someone asks what you are smiling at??). 
 Nora is great. She is smart, resourceful and not at all bothered about behaving appropriately. Just my kind of girl. She is a very entertaining MC, especially when viewed through Bram's eyes! Also, her initial reaction to the zombies is nausea and terror, nothing unrealistic. 
 Bram is just about the sweetest damn MC I have ever 'met'. I normally don't like sweet that much, I generally prefer the bad boy. He is not naive sweet, he is just so damn genuine. And hopeful. And a proper teenage boy with where his thoughts lead. I adored him. 
 "I really sucked at this whole "I am very attracted to you and would like to demonstrate this to you via attention and creative uses of my disposable income" thing." 
 "The fact that she made this beeline for me both warmed my soul and made me want to turn around, walk out the door, and find a cliff to fling myself off of." 
 So a big thing that has put people off of this book is - how can we get on board with a human-zombie romance? Well, Habel does inform us that these zombies are not rotting away, they are given stuff to keep them going and not rotting. So, at the end of the day it is actually pretty similar to vampires. Except you know, the zombies aren't drinking blood to stay alive.. so actually that's a point for the zombies! 
 For me it was actually a nice way to show how people fall in love with personality and not looks. Nora is not superficial and can get past the physical. 
 So if you are worried about whether or not you could ship it, I don't think you should be. Their dynamic makes it pretty hard not to ship them. 
 Overall this book made me laugh, smile for pages on end and there were even some tears near the end. Okay, more than some tears.
