Warm Bodies follows the story of, R, a 'zombie' who lives in plane in an abandoned airport. R has no memories of his living life and no identity. All he has from his past life is the clothes he died in and the first letter of his name. However R seems different to the other 'zombies',he seems to see and think things differently.
R then meets Julie, a girl who is on a mission with a group of others, whilst R and his friends are looking for food. R and his friends attack most the others but after eating the brains of a guy named Perry he feels a sudden urge to protect Julie.
R takes the panic struck and fearful Julie, to his plane where he tries to keep her safe for what is meant to be a couple of days. Through out these days R and Julie get to know each other and find many common grounds and R soon falls in love.
Julie however doesn't belong at the airport and needs to get back to her home and to her father in a war destroyed part of America. When Julie returns home, R feels lost without her company.
Whilst all this is going on back in the airport things are changing for the 'zombies' and war breaks out as the beyond rotted 'zombies' or Boneys are not happy with the changes happening.
I really enjoyed reading this book and I really enjoyed reading the unexpected love story between R and Julie. I also love the way Issac wrote about R's feelings about the way the he and those like him are described as zombies and none human. It really shows how he thought about human characteristics and how the society works. I also love the way how he jumped from what is physically going on to the thoughts and memories of Perry as it built a lot of tension and made me want to continue reading to find out what happens next.
Overall I would rate this book 4 stars as I really did enjoy this book and I would recommend this book to anyone who loves paranormal romances.
