I could not get into this book at all. Ellie was a really cold bitch with little respect for anyone who doesn't agree with her. She was going to break the rules, risk the health of everyone just to see her ex and save him from this plague and colleagues in the way just get murdered for doing their job and trying to stop her. Then there was the smartass thirteen year old brat who acts like a bitch, upsets her dad and thinks a casual sorry makes it all ok. There is no character development when it comes to decent good human traits but all the nasty vices are there in abundance. Even the plague could not save this one.
Honestly this more like 3.5 stars. I enjoyed it, and will be getting more this author. It's well formatted, and a decent, fun read. It suffered from feeling rushed, and the main character's motivation was never clear or well explained. I'm looking forward to trying "Breakers" by the same author.
