I liked it, but some parts drug on, and it got pretty predictable. I also was squicked out by the fact that they continued calling each other brother and sister after kissing and basically admitting that their close relationship was always more. Like I would have been fine with it if they stopped considering themselves siblings. The first book was definitely the best, and I felt like bringing Georgia back just made the end of book one feel pointless except for giving Shawn trauma. I also got tired of Certain things being repeated constantly (Shawn calling himself stupid, description of testing units, mentions of Coke, just certain words being overused, etc) overall I think this is such a unique take on zombies and I really enjoy how much research you could tell went into these books.
