Review: The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan

Title: The Forest of Hands and Teeth Author: Carrie Ryan Series Info: Book 1 of 3 Theme: Zombies, PostApocalyptic, Dystopian Rating: 5 Hearts Summary: Through twists and turns of fate, orphaned Mary seeks knowledge of life, love, and especially what lies beyond her walled village and the surrounding forest, where dwell the Unconsecrated, aggressive flesh-eating people who were once dead.
