From Little Stack

A wildly unique zombie novel that follows a teenage Sophie as she is forced out of her sheltered life when a viral apocalypse hits the United States. The only person she trusts is her brother. And while he’s only miles away, given the violent symptoms of the disease, he might as well be on another planet. Growing up is brutal and Leede doesn’t hold back.

I spent the entire novel holding my breath. It’s an intense coming of age story that manages to brim with hope and horror in equal measure.

Publisher Description

The instant USA Today bestseller from CJ Leede, author of Maeve Fly—a scorching and sweeping new novel about the end of the world as we know it.

A virus is spreading across America, transforming the infected and making them feral with lust. Sophie, a good Catholic girl, must traverse the hellscape of the midwest to try to find her family while the world around her burns. Along the way she discovers there are far worse fates than dying a virgin… The end times are coming.
