A review by gin_books_crochethooks
Plague by J.D. Smith, Lisa C. Hinsley
3.0
I’ve had this on my kindle for about 8 years and thought I’d give it a go as it’s short.
I found the author’s writing style easy to read, and the idea behind the book is extremely interesting. I wasn’t keen on the American spellings, especially considering the book is based on the Wirral, but that’s just personal preference.
It is a heart wrenching read. The use of graphic language didn’t bother me, as it did others, in fact I think it added to the story. It’s supposed to be hell and the descriptive words chosen by the author helped to get this across.
For a novella it was a little repetitive in parts but I still enjoyed the read.
