Where the Dead Go to Die by Aaron Dries, Mark Allan Gunnells
5.0
My first ever zombie book, and what fun I had! I scare easily and hate gore, but had no problems reading Where the Dead Go to Die. The plot rolled along swiftly, the characters engaged me and both the zombies and the humans' decline into zombiehood were suitably chilling.
I found the concept of people infected with the zombie virus being cared for in a hospice as the disease gradually takes hold an intriguing one. Maybe this isn't original in the history of zombie literature, but for me it certainly was.
The ending isn't a happy one and I felt like strangling a particular character, but I liked that it provoked a strong emotional reaction in me. Overall a great, scary, thought-provoking read.
