This was such a surprise!
It was a totally random pick off my shelves and turned out to be a total win, I just couldn't put it down.
This is set in post-Civil War America where slavery is officially abolished but racisim and segregation is still rife. This is a take on the "industrial boarding schools" at the time which tried to destroy Native and black culture in children and assimilate them into European/white norms.
That in itself is a great premise but then add in zombies. Win!
This was just so good, I was hooked from page 1 and flew though it. I believe it's targeted at YA so does read really quickly but I'm still so impressed with this story. It has so much to say and I loved it.
