[jane · Rating 5 out of 5]

no slander will be tolerated on this. literally the only author and book series who, in my opinion, did the zombie apocalypse genre justice. cried at the end of book 2 for obvious reasons. read this years ago but am only just now getting around to writing a review on it—benny’s character development after book 2 was stunning. hated nix, too bad she didn’t die. i miss tom. either way the book series (and the webtoon) was so good pls read this your life will be changed.
