Oh, the feels!

Most books ease you in to the story. I guess this novella was too short to give the reader any time to ease in. I listened to the audiobook. It makes a difference how the story hits, hearing rather than reading. The action hit first, the emotions later. As a daughter, the opening act was horrifying and heart wrenching. I was amazed at how much the main character's relationship with her mother felt real as well as the relationship with her daughter. Later when a side character relates a story with his sister and nephew, more emotions. Most horror stories center on fear as an emotion. This one had a full range of emotions. By the end I had tears running down my face.

I don't want to spoil the book, but if you like emotional reads, this one is for you. The emotional turmoil felt real, not forced. The main character's motivations were easy to understand, her struggles, her sorrow.

I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. These comments are wholly my own. Horror is not usually my genre. Thank you for showing me another side to the genre.

Horrific

This was a great listen. I am not very big fan of zombies or apocalypse. I have to say this was a gripping experiences I loved the fast paced story. This one will grab you and keep you to the very end. I seen this story not so much as zombies, but of a mother’s true love for her child. The lengths a mother will go through to protect what is part of her. This is a story of love, determination and strength beyond anything else. I highly recommend this book.

Great Story

Necrosis was a story about a Mother's love and she did everything she could to protect her own daughter. The daughter had to learn how to survive. The detailing in the story was well thought of. Necrosis was a short but great book. Characters and world building was great. I highly recommend this book to anyone.
