Why read it?

1 author picked The Enemy as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is the first in a series and is aimed at the teenage market, but I defy any adult to read it and not feel a shiver of fear. Everyone over the age of fourteen has succumbed to a deadly zombie virus and the kids have to try and survive. A gripping plot and the writing is heartbreaking, funny, and horrific. 

From Lisa's list on that make you feel things.
