A review by etmetmetm
The Girl With All the Gifts by M.R. Carey

adventurous dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

- Probably one of the most evocative books I've read
- Incredibly tense and sad scenes 
- Good pacing and build up that doesn't feel anticlimactic or too regular 
- World building spoilers:
The best take on a zombie apocalypse I've engaged with

- Characters are both likeable and unlikeable because of their flaws
- What it alludes to at the end is a bit confusing, but it doesn't change much and was still sarisfying
