Or read this if you really enjoyed Let the Right One In and want to see the author’s take on the zombie genre after (successfully and awesomely) attacking the vampire genre. What happens when people’s loved ones come back to life, rise from their graves, and then return home? Read this book if you feel like what your zombie books are missing is a thoughtful examination of grief and loss. It would be a crime to leave it off this list. I mentioned this book as a great option for a genre book in translation, if you’re doing the Read Harder Challenge, but I’m mentioning it again here because I just really enjoyed this one. ![]() handling the undead by John Ajvide Lindqvist All of this might sound like traditional zombie fodder, but it Colson Whitehead’s capable hands, the typical zombie story is taken in new and thought-provoking directions. Teams of civilians, including our protagonist Mark Spitz, are tasked with getting rid of these infected squatters, but of course things don’t end up going according to plan. The uninfected try to build back the civilization that existed before the plague in Zone One (located in Manhattan), but groups of infected still lurk around their island. In this post-apocalyptic world, citizens have been divided into two categories: the infected and the uninfected. ![]()
