Inhuman by Kat Falls

Can I read it again for the first time please?  So if you’ve read my review of Save the Pearls you know I do not buy human chimera stories just because they are thrown my way.  But Inhuman was completely different.  I couldn’t remember what this story’s premise was when I opened it on my kindle.  (Sometimes that is a good thing and I get a pleasant surprise.  Lots of times, however, I get burned for reading a genre I was not in the mood to endure.)  So I thought maybe this was a book about zombies.  Oh, super virus running rampant? Zombies.  Walled off cities? Zombies.  Hyper-paranoia about risk of contamination?  Zombies!  And then it totally wasn’t zombies!  Big fan, right here.  I was reading about Lane (the main gal) sneaking into the Feral Zone at dawn in my tree stand while out hunting.  I could almost see mutants and hybrids stalking their way through the woods around me.  *Appreciative shudder*  The language that the author created and/or repurposed worked well, though I almost gave up at chimpacabra, not gonna lie.  I also loved the way Mack’s storytelling wove things together without being overwhelming, just a nice background reminder.  Yeah, if more of these show up on the shelves, I’m not going to be sad. 5 out of 5 plush monkey dolls to the author.  Well done!
