Cartea este un thriller distopic cu o acțiune extrem de bine pusă la punct și alertă. Tema cărții este una fantastică, iar titlul ne prezintă unul dintre personaje, pe Melanie, care are niște aptitudini speciale. Într-o societate distrusă de un virus puternic, flămânzii (un fel de zombie) sunt cei care extermină și distrug omenirea.

This is such an original story in a genre that has been overwritten/overplayed lately. It was suspenseful, terrifying, and emotional all at the same time. You couldn't help but care for all the characters and understand each of their journeys. I highly recommend this novel.

I had no idea that "M. R. Carey" was MIKE CAREY!!! Now I'm even more excited to read this! Happily, it is on hold for me at my library :-)

I didn't know what this book was about when I started it. It had been recommended to me by a couple of people, so I trusted them and blindly bought it on Audible. If I had known it was about (view spoiler), I probably wouldn't have read it, so I'm glad I didn't know. This book wasn't what I expected at all. And whew, what an ending!

3.5 to 4 stars This was not at all what I expected...in a good way.
The first 10 pages are great, but the story went downhill from there. The premise makes no sense. "Station Eleven" is a much better post-apocalypse novel.

This was already on my radar, but I selected it for the Read Harder task of an award winning audiobook. Creepy! can't imagine watching the upcoming c movie adaptation o.O
