She sure has all the gifts (but this review lacks all the parts)


    By Sarah P.
The Girl With all the Gifts by M.R. Carey is a utopian and dystopian fiction novel that's a good read but a little bit too much in my opinion. Although I believe it's too much, I would recommend it to others. Other books written by M.R. Casey include The Steel Seraglio, Fellside, and The Gift, along with many more.


    In this utopian and dystopian novel, there is a group of four people and they're all trying to find a cure to stop the zombie apocalypse and one girl, named Melanie is immune to them. The main theme of this novel is science. "Melanie sometimes says, 'I won't bite.' She says it as a joke, but Sergeant's people never laugh. Sergeant did once, the first time she said it, but it was a nasty laugh. And then he said, 'Like we'd ever give you the chance, sugar plum."    
-Melanie and Sergeant (Chapter 1 Paragraph 22) this quote is significant to the story because this shows that Melanie doesn't quite understand what is wrong with her at this point, but how well she hits the nail on the head which concerns Sergeant and his people the most.
