I never liked zombies. As a matter of fact I hated them. I was ok with aliens, werewolves, vampires and all other apocalyptical shit but not zombies. They freaked the shit out of me. That's the main reason I never even thought of watching The Walking Dead. So i was very sceptical when I chose this book but after waiting for ages for a Jamie McGuire book I just couldn't put this down. I went to the bookshop about 4 times looking at Red Hill and not buying but ultimately I bought it and read it. All in all it was a good book. It reminded me a lot of The Host by Stephanie Meyer but with less romance which was a good thing. Red Hill mostly was about how they were gonna survive rather than just romance between Scarlet and Nathan. One thing I didn't like about the book was though how the author waited until the very end to (view spoiler)[ kill off Miranda, Bryce, Cooper and Joey (hide spoiler)] I mean I was starting to really like the whole family thing they had and was totally devastated that they had to go. Also the ending. I mean the fact that they wanted to live at Red Hill Ranch? they would have without doubt been a lot more safer at the other place but they stayed back? without electricity or water????? In my opinion that was pretty stupid. Also I hated Scarlet with my life. Fucking hated how selfish she was and how because of her the other characters lost their lives. Seriously Nathan you deserve a lot more than this. Still I enjoyed the book. It won't stay in my head like The Easy or anything but I still would be happy to give it a 4 stars.
