I highly recommend The Reapers are the Angels.
*****
It will always be the zombie books that will make me cry. So strange. But it's true. There was Feed, then Dust & Decay, and now, The Reapers are the Angels. two days has passed since i finished this book and yet... i was still devastated. =(
Temple is uniquely at home at zombie-infested America. Even more fascinating is her being uncomfortable in those enclaves filled with people trying to just get by. She rather be travelling and smelling the rotted and acrid smell of the undead. She's going to my list of the best kick-*ass heroines ever! Another strong-willed and skilled girl who I will worship for her tenacity and guile to stay alive.
Somehow, Temple and Moses Todd has what I call a weird and f*cked-up relationship. It is by no means friendly and yet there's a mutual respect. How the author develop their relationship is unbelievable. It was my favorite aspect of the story. =)
The Reapers are the Angels hit me hard. Darkly humorous and grotesquely satisfying, it will make any zombie fans ask for more gore. and some. Mr. Alden Bell, you made me cry. But I still want more.

Sigh, this book. I loved Temple's "friendship" with Maury too. :)
