A review by uncanny_lynx
River of Souls by T.L. Bodine

5.0

I picked this up after a long reading slump, and it was so refreshing. A zombie story more about the pain of life than the horrors of death, it’s a novel about hope for the hopeless and how one sharp moment can change who you are and what you’re fighting for.

It’s a book with action and danger and loss, but I still found it a comfortable read, something to settle into with a mug of hot cocoa. Maybe it could have been more stressful, more intense, but I liked that it wasn’t what I expected.

Mild spoilers: The ending left me looking for more, in a good way. The story feels unfinished, but it just means I’m hoping for a sequel.
