Dirty pool

Okay, fuck, this book has had me on the verge of tears a number of times (and on the verge of my seat even more) but they just went too far.  The people I'm tearing up at the almost or actual death but - the cat?  Did you REALLY have to kill the CAT?

I'm almost done reading Feed by Mira Grant - probably one of the best zombie books I've ever read.

(The goddamn cat, guys.  Oh poor Lois.  And in this book, mammals under 40 lbs don't turn into zombies so it's not like I was EXPECTING it.)

Yeah, that's a heavy book. It doesn't get any better. :(

NO. IT DIDN'T. I stayed up to finish it because, damn, after the cat I needed to finish it.

Hands down, one of the best zombie books I've ever read - I mean, how often do you praise a zombie book by saying "I almost kept forgetting that there were zombies" because they were so much background noise? I felt like you became one of the citizens there. You knew they existed, they were always at the back of your mind but it was every day stuff ... until the times when the threat was very real.
