I also especially adore her ability to turn almost anything into a weapon. That’s not to say she doesn’t have her own demons to wrestle with, because she does. I wish I had a fraction of her confidence, both as a teen and now, frankly. She’s tough, badass, and definitely knows who she is. Even though there’s six POV’s, Vee is the main character. What could make a zombie apocalypse in a once-in-a-lifetime blizzard at a shady pharma-run fat camp even more terrifying? The fact that almost every single person in Vee’s pod has a secret that threatens their survival. This broad character perspective was also perfect to build the tension inside of an already tense story. With six character POV’s, you bounce around a lot from chapter to chapter, but each character is so vividly rendered, I never got confused when switching. And such a fun way to bring those tropes to life in a non-cheesy way. I loved this so much! Trying to figure out who is who, while the characters are trying to figure that out at the same time is sheer brilliance. She gives us seven character tropes from horror movies with a brief explanation for each, and then weaves these tropes into the awareness of her characters. I mean, A LOT! First, one of my favorite things is how deVos opens the book. ![]()
