minipanda 's review for:

Sister, Maiden, Monster by Lucy A. Snyder
4.0

3.5-3.75 Stars
Probably one of the weirdest books I have read, but I like it.


TW: Blood, gore, graphic scenes, cannibalism, and violence.

The story is split into three parts. Each part follows a different woman and her frightening journey of being infected by the new deadly virus. The virus affected each woman differently. Erin started to crave brains. The more she ate, the more her body changed and mutated. Savannah, on the other hand, had urges to murder people. Last was Mareva. She had always had chronic tumors. But after being infected, she noticed new growths on her body. Little does she know that those growths are not tumors but something more terrifying.

This book was weird and disturbing but in a good way. I like how everything came together at the end. Although I wish there were more to Mareva's character. Her character felt bland compared to the other two. Besides that, I found this novel different and entertaining.

I would recommend this novel to fans of zombies, gore, or disturbing horror!

***I would like to thank NetGalley, Lucy A. Snyder (the author), and Macmillan Audio for graciously sending me the audiobook to review. As always, all thoughts are my own.**
