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

4.0

This probably would’ve been a 5 star read for me had I read when it came out! It’s a really interesting take on

zombies

but through no fault of the novel’s own, they’re just a bit “done” now, aren’t they?

I foolishly watched the film (also written by Carey) shortly afterwards which put a bit of a dampener on it as it rather mangled the heart of the story for me!

Those things aside, I genuinely really enjoyed it and it was a great pick for an October reading list.
