#BookReview: The Day I Died (Apocalypse Cycle) by @AyaKnight


Synopsis: She had to die, to find the truth.

Oshin Fletcher lives by three rules: obey authority, don’t draw unnecessary attention to yourself, and above all else, never leave the city walls.

Some say that rules are meant to be broken. For Oshin, her world shattered on the day she was betrayed. A secret meeting leads her beyond the safety of her city. Lured by the ignorance that comes with being lonely and hopeful, Oshin was about to discover just how severe consequences could be. Lost and alone, she waited; no one came. But they did. The infected, the decaying, the undead.

Oshin wakes to find herself in an abandoned house, deep within the forest. Her body was changing, her desire to feed, uncontrollable. She was a marionette—her hunger, the puppeteer. She pivots on a line between life and death. They say the undead are mindless, but Oshin was very much aware. She sets out in an unknown world where the worst evils aren’t the undead, but humanity itself. With only days before the effects of the disease take hold and decay sets in, Oshin must race to find a way back home for a cure. She soon discovers that home is not everything she thought it to be. Dark secrets have been in play since the moment she was born.

An emotionally intense zombie survival story.

My Review: 
This new take on the whole zombie dystopian thing was one I didn't see coming.  I think the author gave something new to this genera and it worked very well.  I was pulled in from the first page and this 300+ page book was one that I could not put down!! I can not wait to check out this authors other titles if she has any.  The twists and turns in this one will keep you guessing until the very end.  It was very nice to read a standalone for a change.  This one wrapped everything up with a major twist at the end.  I would love a companion title set in the same world.










"The Day I Died is a riveting teen dystopian sci-fi story...Absorbing, revealing, and at once familiar in theme, yet original in its rendition...Never could [Oshin] have imagined what is to come--and, neither will the reader. " --D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
