I'm all about reading the book that has inspired a movie first. The previews to Warm Bodies seemed like a humorous take on the zombie obsession that has seemed to overtake the previous vampire fad. And the book seemed to take the same voice, so now that I have finished it I can go watch the movie.
"R" is a zombie and like others like him, he doesn't remember his name or who he was before he was a Dead. At the beginning of the story he is much like other zombies who are hungry for the Living. Quickly, he realizes that he craves something a little more than the usual. After consuming the brain of a teenage boy, he sees the boy's life in memories and decides to form a relationship with the victim's girlfriend named Julie. Of course she is scared of him first, but she soon realizes that R is different from other zombies. It doesn't hurt that he is willing to do anything to protect her. While doing so, R begins to change even more and they decide together that they will try to reverse the zombie plague in the America that has been destroyed by war and social collapse.
