This was a fun, quick little short about life as a lonely single woman facing a zombie-riddled world in which the zombies, or "Hungries" in this story, live alongside humans and try to co-exist peacefully, despite never being quite able to forget their cravings for flesh. We follow an introverted woman as she goes on a few first date attempts, but each one is thwarted by the lack of life in the other parties. Despite being a horror/dystopian tale about zombies, it was a surprisingly sweet, poignant piece with really lovely writing and a compelling, familiar depiction of loneliness and how much we can grow to crave another's company. I enjoyed this a lot, and highly recommend it!
