My name is Josh. I don't know my last name, and I don't really know how I became a zombie, but I do know I have to tell you this story. We're "love zombies," and we have joined forces with some breather teens who fight out of the La Jolla Caves. We're going on a dangerous mission, and we want you to come with us.
The Most Fascinating Take on the Zombie Genre in a Long Time
"When a mysterious zombie virus threatens the world, it's up to teenage 'love zombies' to stop it. Musgrave supplies enough jugular-ripping, entrails-feasting carnage to satisfy any fan of the genre...Yet there's also leavening humor, as well as unexpectedly resonant, emotional moments: When Josh drives a car and feels the steering wheel 'smooth in my hands,' he says, 'You don't know what it means for us undead to be able to do something so human. I felt like I was one step closer, as Pinocchio would say, to being a real boy.' (T)he love zombies' satisfying triumph reaches icky levels of bloodletting that fans of the genre will appreciate. A vampire sequel looms on the horizon. Overstuffed—just how some fans like it."—Kirkus Reviews
