Paradise Girl by Phill FeatherstoneMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Kerryl finds herself alone on her farm, in her town, and possibly in the world, when a highly contagious disease sweeps out of Africa and infects the whole world. Unsure how to deal with her experiences, she writes everything down in her diary, addressing it to Adam, her imaginary friend. But as her predicament sinks in, she leans more and more heavily on Adam, until she's not sure anymore what's real and what isn't...
What a fascinating read! Most of the things I want to comment on would count as spoilers, so I'll only say that I really enjoyed this. Kerryl is an odd character; I felt bad for her, but I didn't really like her as a character. However it didn't stop me reading and wanting to know what would happen next, and if I get a chance I'll pick up the sequel/companion book, too.
Read this if you're interested in apocalypse, teen survival, or psychological thrillers with killer endings.
I received a free copy of this title and chose to leave an honest review.
