The people saying the ending was a "twist" don't know how to read imo. The book does a good job of building Marcos, showing you who he is, who he thinks he is, how he fits into the world.

It focused so hard on the gore of it all that the really interesting psychological aspects were buried. I was expected to take a lot on faith as a reader, which fine, but then the main character doesn’t even trust that the virus is real.
I needed the book to be from any other characters perspective. She took the most boring character in a cast of very interesting characters.
The story felt weirdly stilted. We got huge internal dialogue pieces and then the ending is so rushed. It felt very off.
The premise was good and I wanted to love this book but it just was not what I wanted it to be.
