I just want to live like normal people. But my Borderline Personality Disorder fills each day with emotional pain. And drives other people away. Not that there's anyone to drive away anymore...
Frieda's a struggling twenty-something young professional when the apocalypse comes. Overnight, Boston falls apart as a rapidly spreading virus makes her neighbors crave brains. Enough to kill for them.
She survives alone for a whole year in her urban studio apartment. And she surprises herself by managing her mental illness better than she did before. When her beloved cat becomes ill, Frieda goes on a quest to save her. It sets off a chain of events that challenges everything.
Reviews of the first edition call this a dynamic read that's a great story with a twist I didn't foresee. This places a character you'd expect in a women's fiction novel at the heart of a zombie apocalypse.
This second edition includes edits throughout the book, as well as an author's note and content note. Please be sure to check the content note before you read by previewing the book. It's at the beginning right after the author's note.
