heykellyjensen 's review for:

The Reapers Are the Angels by Alden Bell

---

A really solid zombie apocalypse story. I loved Temple and her fierceness, determination, and not-taking-any-of-it attitude. The ending was unexpected, in a good way. This one leans gruesome and gory, but like all good zombie tales, it's really a story about humanity and what keeps people alive and driven to survive.

Side note: I didn't realize Bell was Megan Abbott's husband, which was a neat little fact to find in the author's 2-sentence bio.
