Living Dead Girl took me a little over an hour and a half to read. This book is BEYOND fast paced, you are so in the thick of it. Beware speed readers: every small sentence counts, and those words you know to look for won't be there. Cherish every sentence with this book not to miss a single moment. 

Every moment was throughly disgusting, and I could not put this book down. I truly recommend if you're already deep into the thriller horror concept, and if you're comfortable reading about very bleak scenes.

If you start this book, be prepared to finish it the same day. It’s so gripping I couldn’t put it down. It’s absolutely gripping, horrifying, and one I will be thinking about for a long time.
