Overgrowth
by Mira Grant
I previously enjoyed Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant and was excited to see she had another book out. This time about killer aliens. This was a creepy science fiction horror book about an alien invasion. We follow Anastasia who was a converted alien at three years old. She lives her whole life telling everyone she is an alien and that her species will be coming soon to take over the planet. No one believes her until the aliens come to take over the planet.
I liked the vast array of characters in this book. We had trans representation and Mexican American representation. I liked Anastasia as a character, but I would have liked her to kick some butt in this story, she was rather bland. I wanted to see more of an attack, we have a brief encounter at the end, but I would have liked a bit more excitement throughout the story. It was a lot of talking between characters. More action, less talking.
I liked this book and will continue reading books by Mira Grant. She puts a new spin on sci fi horror and it's always a fun read.
