Becca & The Books's Reviews > Feed

This one was a confusing ride because I didn't like it?? but I also didn't dislike it???
What I can say is that Feed definitely had an impact on me (to the point where I had zombie nightmares) and I didn't want to put it down at any point - but I'm ultimately confused about what this book wanted to be.
The general gist is that we're following 3 bloggers who are selected to shadow and report on a presidential campaign... in a zombie apocalypse. Or not apocalypse I guess because the world doesn't end. The narrative is a kind of emotionless report of the presidential campaign with a smidge of witty aside, which fits the voice of our main character, a blogger... And the zombies just kind of exist.
The focus of this was definitely on the political plot, making this feel like more of a speculative "how would America continue in the aftermath of a zombie outbreak" than a zombie novel, and it weirdly had a bit of a noir feel to it more than dystopian or horror.
I am low-key intrigued to continue the series but this first one, while compelling, really just confused me.
