The first few chapters threw me. We're led through different times and it took me a while to adjust and understand....... totally worth it!
Going alongside Emily in her journey of self discovery was definitely like being in a different world. It was quite immersive and so bittersweet and heartbreaking, yet it filled me with warmth. I won't go into any details about why it made me feel this, I want you to experience this for yourselves.
Each character had a good solid personality and the interactions between them were well written.

Zombie Insurance ( Book 1)
By Dean Williamson
⭐️⭐️
Emma works for Zombie Insurance, a company selling what she believes to be bogus policies. The growing pile of bills are enough to quiet Emma’s conscience, and, to her, this is merely a job. With her father crashing on the couch of her small, one bedroom apartment, and dealing with the grief of her husband’s death five years prior, Emma is depressed, penniless, and desperate.
During a routine claim inspection, Emma makes the harrowing discovery that she is an unwitting accomplice in the zombie apocalypse. She is forced to contend with the startling discovery that zombies are real and that the movies, video games, and comics ill prepared Emma for dealing with their horrifying nature.
Emma must navigate through her emotions of revenge, sorrow, and loneliness as she faces trials that confront her past. Forgiveness and redemption are available should she summon the strength to take them.
This started well and had such a good concept. But it got bizarre and not in a good way it got way to “clever” and I got bored.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
