The Monsters in our Shadows

It took me ages to really get into this book but honestly, I find most post apocalyptic books tend to ease you in slowly. The pace was quick and meaty and the build up to what the monsters are, scared me half to death!

The writing was smashing and the characters seemed to come to life right on the page. That is a serious gift in a writer. The book was a little monotonal and I wasn't a huge fan of Anthems and that is hard for me because I need to love the main character to really get into the book but all the book was a brilliant read for halloween.

I do have to admit I don't read much sci-fi but having it mashed up in horror was definitely an experience I want again.
