If you want a spooky book recommendation this is it. I got thriller, Halloween vibes from this book from the start. A disease has consumed most of the world leaving behind 3 types of people. The wicked, the true and the vexed. The wicked are something a little like zombies in the book their described like children with no impulse control and a want to kill. Astrid, a vexed young girl curious about the world & the only other young person in her community Henry is who we mostly follow throughout the story as they try to figure out what's beyond their world of Goldsport. I can say that I definitely didn't see the twist coming. It was a good book with a decent storyline maybe a bit lacking here and there mostly of how the disease came about. Quick read with a Walking Dead world full of wicked people and survival feel.

This live action version of the Disney classic is very enjoyable. Staying very true to the cartoon and with a great, mainly British cast. Glenn Close is perfect as the wicked Cruella De Vil. There are plenty of laughs along the way as well.

So many clichés. I think I've read this book before, except it was called Wicked Lovely (except most of the guys in that story had no backbone). Nothing original, but it'll keep you entertained while you wait for the next book in the Throne of Glass series.
  
Not just an analysis or a rather gruesome murder, but a wider look at the social context of the times and the role of the detective in fact and in fiction.

Personally, I enjoyed this, but thought The Wicked Boy by the same author was even better.
