Mira Grant
Feed is an electrifying and critically acclaimed novel of a world a half-step from our own that the New York Times calls “Astonishing” — a novel of zombies, geeks, politics, social media, and the virus that runs through them all — from New York Times bestseller Mira Grant. The year was 2014. We had cured cancer. We had beat the common cold. But in doing so we created something new, something terrible that no one could stop. The infection spread, virus blocks taking over bodies and minds with one, unstoppable command: FEED. Now, twenty years after the Rising, Georgia and Shaun Mason are on the trail of the biggest story of their lives—the dark conspiracy behind the infected. The truth will out, even if it kills them.

"<b>AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH</b> Ok so this was a LOT!!!! I can now Definitely say I'm in the Mira Grant fan club!!!!! Her writing style was absolutely PHENOMENAL!!!! I LOVED her sense of humour!!!!! It was a little hard for me to get into at first, but that's mostly because of the finer details about journalism. I personally have never been interested in journalism, so it took me a little bit to get into it. The humour and the relationship between the characters Definitely made it easier though!!!! And it was just written so beautifully!!!! If you like zombies and humour I can Not recommend this enough!!!!!!"
"Contrary to what one may think, <i>Feed</i> is not about zombies. To borrow a phrase from the novel itself, the zombies are there, but they're not the story. Instead, the story crafted is a gripping thriller, a chilling tale of bioterrorism, corruption, humanity, and most importantly, the fight for truth and the sacrifices necessary to achieve it. Mira Grant (Seanan McGuire) has created a masterpiece that aspires to many facets of greatness and successfully hits the mark in each case. Witty, heartfelt and relevant, Feed is one novel you won't regret picking up."

"More political thriller than zombie book, Feed takes on the question that no other zombie apocalypse book dares to ask: what happens if we win? Grant made me care about her characters and invest in the conspiracy driving the books. With a truly shocking twist toward the end of this 1st book, I couldn't wait to see what happened in the next. I was not disappointed. Plus, it has thoughtful observations about the nature of modern politics - with or without zombies. #thriller #media_and_internet "
