Thicker Than Blood
Thicker Than Blood | Claire C. Riley, Madeline Sheehan
2 posts | 7 read | 12 to read
A true friendship never dies. Leisel and Evelyn lost everything. Husbands. Families. Friends. Lives that made sense. All they had left was each other, and a friendship that could withstand anything... Even an apocalypse. Until one fateful night, the marginal safety they'd come to rely on comes to a vicious and brutal end. With the help of Alex & Jami, both unlikely allies, Leisel and Evelyn are able to escape their shattered sanctuary only to find themselves face-to-face with a much altered, much crueler life where they have to find the way-and the will-to stay alive in a world they no longer recognize. Traveling across a broken and infection-ridden country; the road-weary group are pitted against endless violence, improbable circumstances, and the ultimate loss. Everything comes at a price-especially safety, the cost of which could very well strip them of the one thing they've tried so hard to cling to: their humanity. Yet along with all the trials they're forced to endure, there's also hope in the form of love. Having loved Leisel from afar, Alex attempts to put the pieces of her fractured heart back together. But in such a savage world, is there room for love? In a place of nightmares-made-reality, where the living should be feared far more than the dead, an unbreakable friendship and a love amongst all odds can mean the difference between life and death. There are friends... And then there are Leisel and Evelyn.

If you're looking for romance in a zombie apocalypse with a happy ending...don't look here. If you're looking for a bleak AF zombie apocalypse and a small dose of romance with a few sex scenes...then this one is for you.

A zombie book featuring best friends that made a promise to one another: stay together, survive together, no matter what.

Pros: I like the world. Very bleak. (Like The Walking Dead but a little less gore). I like how hard survival is. I love the villain and a couple of secondary characters.

Cons: I do not care for the main characters, Leisel and Evelyn. At all. Also, I'm super bummed about some of the character deaths. Alas, zombies 🤷🏻‍♀️
