This Delicious Death by Kayla Cottingham
adventurous
dark
tense
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
1.5
As cool as the plot line is, this is another YA that falls short of knocking the ball out the park.
There are a lot of questions, post festival, like: where was Val living if she ran out her parents window?? What about Jasmine’s parents? And what happened to her brother? What does daily life look, walking around as a ghoul?
There were also holes with the “zombie”- like universe, and the pace moved SO SLOW!!!! For a dystopian like book, I was really hoping this would be a fast pace story, with more action and less back and forth teenage romance b.s.
But that’s what it was, in my opinion, and it was a real let down.

Graphic: Child death, Gore, Gun violence, Violence, Blood, Cannibalism, and Abandonment
Minor: Religious bigotry and War
