This book is not easily put into any one category: a little dystopian/cataclysmic, a little paranormal, with a hint of romance.

Lily and her autistic twin Mel live in a "farm," where all the teenagers are food for the zombies who feed on blood, known as ticks. Lily is planning to escape with Mel. Along comes Carter, who the girls knew from "the before." Lily is rightfully suspicious, because Carter has specifically been looking for Lily, for his own reasons.

Its been a long time since I've ever felt real fear for a character in a book. But, I did in this one. Love this book, and will definately be looking for the second one.
