The Girl with All the Gifts

Wonderfully skewed take on zombies with well rounded characters. Horrifyingly beautiful where people are people and there are no right and clean answers. ( )

Lovely, sad, haunting, thought-provoking, and strangely hopeful. ( )

Wow, that was intense. Very creepy, post-apocalyptic zombie scenario, with some astonishingly hopeful moments -- I mean in a bleak, the world has already ended so get on the next generation train kind of way, but wow. Very well written, hard to put down, extremely graphic horror. ( )

Great read! Love the fleshed out mechanics of the zombie apocalypse. Love the characters. Love the scientist you love to hate. Everyone in the book hated her, she was kind of a jerk, but she also really did want to save the world and she did things the other characters disapproved of to do so. ( )

LOVED THIS BOOK!!! I only dabble in horror books, but have the occasional taste for a zombie book now and again, and oh, this was a delight. This has a brilliant introduction, because we see Melanie in some sort of institution, know there are guards and medical personnel, and can’t quite work out what’s going on. The author does a brilliant job creating suspense and slowly revealing information in this one, and makes it impossible to keep from turning the page. A cast of characters you will both love and loathe and a completely captivating story line. LOVED this book.
