i enjoyed this a lot, and i was surprised at the amount of depth it managed to pack in 10 hours. it was pretty fast-paced, which i didn't mind at the start -- i appreciated that it got into the action/central plot almost right away, and that we didn't have to suffer through the actual camp program shit. the horror movie archetypes also set the structure for the group pretty well, though i got a little tired of it by the end of the book. i also really appreciate that
the cause/biology of the zombies was explored as well. it was really interesting to consider what happens to these people after they turn? are they lost forever?
. the ending was bittersweet, but not unsurprising. i think deVos did exactly what she set out to do with this book.
