A review by kacie_reads
Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O'Brien

dark sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

it was okay. the fact that the book ends
with ann having the leave everything - her animals, home, books - she grew up with and leave with a horrible man
sucks. but i did read this in one sitting, and it had me sweating and nervous. i just am kind of over the ‘horrible, evil stranger’ and ‘young, sweet, religious girl’ trope.
