Ryan goes generations into the future after a zombie outbreak to investigate the life of Mary, a descendant of the survivors. The zombies are still a constant threat, and Mary finds herself struggling against them as well as the society the survivors have formed to survive. While it's not a bad read, I found myself wishing for more focus on the survivor's society than the emo, selfish thoughts and actions of Mary. However, she does behave like a typical teenager, and this is a ya book, so the intended target audience of teens will probably enjoy it. Teens looking for zombie horror will most likely be disappointed by the level of romance in it, though, so be forewarned!
