This book is not for the faint of heart. I was not expecting this kind of gore when I choose this read. I am not disappointed!
I really enjoyed this story: so full of twist and turns, strong and badass female characters and overall scary. Everything that I could ask in a good book.
Is really interesting to see how the girls see this "new world": once schoolmates become completely strangers and the "every man for himself" mentality kicks in, as soon as the disease (and the shortage of food) spreads around. In the end, the ties of love and friendship are bigger than everything else. And that's the big, an important, message this book provides.
Loved it!
