Elegy for the Undead by Matthew Vesely

5.0

I think the most important aspect of any good zombie story is the question - when is someone no longer themselves because of the actions they're forced to take? This novella took that question and explored it in such an unexpected way. This is the story of Lyle and Jude, two regular people who f*** up and still love each other. Now add an viral outbreak and an event that will forever change their relationship, and who they are. GOLD. The connection to suffering while a loved one suffers is brilliantly rendered through the scope of a horror/zombie lens and Vesely's writing is beautiful. Whether you like horror, romance, contemporary, or just need a good cry - READ THIS BOOK.
