According to this book, being a Zombie sucks.

First, please note this is completely unrelated to the tv show of the same name. Second, Hugh Howey is an amazing writer. He is so descriptive without being wordy. this book was such a fresh, yet totally screwed up, take on the zombie genre - it's completely from the perspective of the human souls trapped inside the zombie bodies. Disturbing and heartbreaking. Walking Dead will never be the same for me now. :(

This book was gross, disgusting and repulsive :D. I'm not generally squeamish but there were times that I wanted to stop reading it. Glad I pushed through that though.
This was really well written, as I expected from Hugh Howey. Plot-wise, it doesn't really have one; I was expecting this because I'd read the Amazon reviews. The lack of plot probably would have bothered me if I had been expecting one, so there's a plus-point for reading reviews. Given this book is from the zombie perspective, the lack of plot makes sense because of the situation they're in.
