If you have religious trauma and were raised in purity culture, you will love this. It truly had some beautiful things to say that made me tear up a few times. As far as viruses go this is such a unique idea. Obviously all the triggers here. The rest of the book wasn’t incredibly inventive and followed the typical outbreak narrative and timeline. I do think it was a bit too long and was cheesy at parts. I still really enjoyed it, but I didn’t find it scary and I did not get that really intense rush and reveal of the virus that you would expect at the beginning of an outbreak.
I do think the synopsis sets it up to be more lighthearted and camp, but it’s definitely dark and serious.
