I really enjoyed the animal's view. I loved them. I'll be listening to the rest of the series.

3.5 star upped to 4
For some reason, this book fell short for me. I think it's because I love animals so much and I went into it with such high hopes. It's not bad. It's quite entertaining. At first, there are so many characters ( until they die) and I was lost trying to remember the dogs nicknames for each character.
Then, the story got better but then just stopped.
It's fun. Unique. Actually the second most unique zombie twist I've ever read (2nd to Eleanor Merry ' s zombie books)
I can't complain about anything, and I can't put my finger on why I'm rating it lower than my normal reads. I feel bad about that. I truly do. Maybe it's just because I felt like finishing it was a chore. But I can't pin point why. So that's not fair. I'm sure other people would love this story.
Ps to the author..... The intro page said I was holding four novellas in my hand for the first time.... But it was only 1

Homeward Bound meets The Walking Dead. It’s heart wrenching and heartwarming. I love how this is the zombie apocalypse from a dog’s perspective.

This is the book to read if you like Homeward Bound AND zombies. Literally, it's those two things combined. When the zombie apocalypse breaks out, Riley (yes, same name even), has to ensure the last of her humans survives. Joined by Patches the cat-- an enemy turned ally-- and Benben the yorkie, this plucky set of pets has to look after their owner's teen daughter and infant son as they make their way from one state to the next towards their old home.

Loved it! This was my first zombie tale and I can't wait to read the others in this short series.
Who would have thought that telling a zombie tale from a dog and her companions eyes would be so great!

There are five books in the series, but I'm counting them as one.
It's a pretty good book and kept me reading, but there's not anything new or special about it. The opening of book 5 pretty much killed the point of the whole story for me, but I would still read more from this author.

What a great read for a animal AND zombie lover! It's really interesting seeing things from both a dog's and a cat's perspective. Great for inbetweenreading, when you just need something light.
