Without picking things apart, this was a good zombie book. I feel those describing it as The Last of Us meets Warms Bodies were exactly right.
I do really wish the pacing was better on this book, though. I think that would have helped me enjoy the details of this story much more. The ending grabbed my attention, but the first half to three quarters felt a little off.
