Alex, a resourceful seventeen-year-old running from her incurable brain tumor, Tom, who has left the war in Afghanistan, and Ellie, an angry eight-year-old, join forces after an electromagnetic pulse sweeps through the sky and kills most of the world's population, turning some of those who remain into zombies and giving the others superhuman senses.… (mere)
magelet87: Before Bick adds the dystopia element and its just the three of them surviving the apocalypse, this book reminds me of Born. It had the potential to be as good as that trilogy.
CW: MC goes off to the wilderness to spread her parents ashes. She has a brain tumour and by making this trip she knows she may die as she is not near medical treatment. ( )
Cuando Alex se adentra en el bosque tiene diecisiete años, un tumor cerebral, una pistola... y una única idea en mente. Entonces se topa con un anciano y su nieta Ellie, una niña que acaba de perder a su padre en la guerra de Iraq. Justo cuando están a punto de separarse, un zumbido comienza a extenderse por el lugar y un fuerte dolor se apodera de Alex. Después, todo se vuelve extraño: pájaros muertos llueven del cielo, los aparatos electrónicos dejan de funcionar... Cuando por fin el dolor cesa, el abuelo ha muerto y Alex está sola con Ellie. Y en el bosque se oyen disparos.
I began reading this with great excitement (such a cool cover! such a strong beginning! good writing!) and my heart went SPLAT when I realized it was a zombie book. I. Cannot. Read. Zombie. Books. Most are too scary for me (yeah, I'm a big baby, but still).
So I enjoyed, really enjoyed, what I read, but I put it down when the flesh eating began. File Under: Skimmed. ( )
