I admit to writing this review when I've only dipped into the beginning, but no one has written a review for this novel yet so I just wanted to say that SO FAR THIS IS A TREASURE! Far from your typical zombie apocalypse story & far from your typical BL love story. So far the MC is an intelligent, empathetic young scientist who get zombified. Our unlucky MC has been bitten and is in process of zombification when he saves the MC, a high level alpha with military training. The MC then proceeds to save the ML again a short time later and they team up. That's when the comedy really begins! To explain the mentality of the MC, he desperately brings a "Hamster Raising Guide, " hoards supplies, and even has a semi-trailer with which to travel. He is a beta* and the ML is a high level alpha with the smell of mint. The MC keeps saving the ML telling himself he's protecting his food supply for later instead of admitting he still wants to retain as much of his humanity as possible and denying he is a zombie.*Note: I don't understand why they say he is a beta, then he has a light white tea pheromone and a gland on the back of his neck. It basically describes what is typically called an omega and says beta instead. My only complaint about the novel, but they may explain it as a different world setting later & I haven't read it yet. I will try to edit my review when/if I finish! This is where I'm at so far. I love the comedy, the sarcasm, the misunderstandings because the MC's facial paralysis and inability to make expressions due to his zombification. I highly recommend this if you want an apocalyptic romantic comedy!
