At first look and without being familiar with Poe’s work of the red death this is definitely a book I could get behind. Following the lives of two characters the reader gets to see how the bloody plague has affected them 4 years later. I really like Nic’s character. Story of a true survivor who spends his days helping others because he’s immune. Although I am curious about how Imogene is going to continue to navigate the lie that has been created for her. I can’t wait to find out!
