The Girl With All the Gifts by M.R. Carey
5.0
Favourite quote: "...like Pandora, opening the great big box of the world and not being afraid, not even caring whether what's inside is good or bad. Because it's both. Everything is always both.
But you have to open it to find that out."
And I think that sums it up. Once you finish the book, the whole reference to Pandora (AKA the girl with all the gifts) everything just comes together. You start realising all the hints. All the stuff that spilled out of Pandora's box were the little bits of foreshadowing.
And I'll admit, I would be crying like a baby if I weren't so tired. This is an amazing book. An amazing take on zombies. And this movie, fingers crossed, will be fantastic.
