Brilliant character development and depth, slow burn pacing, and realistic plot progression. A book you will get lost in- the emotions were palpable and the most heart ache I’ve ever felt with a book

When I find the words to describe the ache in my heart and the happy tears, maybe I'll update this to a full review. TL;Dr this book is fantastic, and Lori Prince's narration takes it to a whole other level.

4 stars
<b> Basics </b>
Author: she/her (USA)
Genre: post-apocalyptic/dystopian
Setting: zombie apocalypse
Themes: survival, trust, love
Vibes: tired, gritty, hopeful
<b> Characters </b>
+ Saff - MMA sharpshooter, has severe asthma & needs inhaler, was in med school before zombies, closed-off & jaded, uni soccer player
+ Maddie - sight-impaired and uses a cane, great with people, snarky & naive & bubbly & kind
<b> Quotes </b>
<b> Pros </b>
+ being sight impaired during a zombie apocalypse. New fear unlocked.
+ first time I've ever seen "petrichor" used 🌧
+ romance tropes: grumpy x sunshine, slow-burn
+ Is this going to be the slow-burn f/f of my dreams?
+ living for the jealousy, jealousyyyyyy 👌
+ "It was nice. A good day, even," said no one in a zombie apocalypse ever. If this isn't a death flag sentence, I don't know what is 💀 Sh*t is about to go DOWN 😬
<b> Neutral </b>
/ A surprisingly small amount of actual zombie scenes for a zombie apocalypse book.
<b> Cons </b>
- Saff is wildly overpowered & max skilled (MMA + med student/doctor + hunting skills + sharpshooting + uni athlete) while Maddie is severely underskilled (no survival skills + sight impaired). Feels like there should have been some more balance.
- some descriptions in the sex scenes were not my cup of tea (for example, soaking wet folds, swaying, quivering 😬)
<b> Comp Recs </b>
+ Crisped & Sered duology - TJ Klune (m/m)
+ Monstrous series - Lily Mayne (m/m)
<b> TW </b>
