The pace of the story was quick, however, it felt incredibly disjointed and it really didn't make any sense to me. I'm aware it was a zombie based short story, but the confusion of the talking dog and how her partner is more of a background character rather than someone we could have seen her have a relationship with didn't work for me.

As far as the dog is concerned, I don't know what the point of it was. Was it her dead partner's conscious mind? Was it a figment of her imagination? What was it trying to remind her of? I just don't get it.

Unfortunately, this story didn't strike any chords with me and left me with more questions than it really should have. ( )
