What we liked about this book: Overall, we enjoyed this global perspective on the zombie apocalypse and the parallels made by our own recent pandemic experiences.
What we didn’t like: The most frequent complaint was the structure of the novel; the journalistic interview format imbued every character with impenetrable plot armor.
Verdict: Two thumbs up, one sideways, two thumbs down
