When I closed the book I sort of sat there all huh, WTF. The ending is not at all what I expected, which isn’t a bad thing, but it definitely left me unsatisfied…at first.

I’m NOT saying for the worse, I’m just saying shiz gets weird. I enjoyed the action/suspense and overall creep factor A LOT, A LOT. ![]() Her writing is the perfect balance of giving the reader a clear picture of setting/emotion/ without slamming them over the head with weighty details. ![]() I’m normally not the HUGEST fan of third person narratives, finding it hard to really get into the main character’s head, but Bick did it right. Bick’s post apocalyptic/thriller/horror mash-up, ASHES. ![]()
