- With IF WE SURVIVE THIS, Marie brings her signature prickly girls and complex interpersonal dynamics to a zombie apocalypse story, with fantastic results.
- Flora is a new favorite main character of mine. She has OCD, which as you can imagine is a particular nightmare in this scenario. She deals with fear of germs and intrusive, violent thoughts throughout the book.
- Plus, it’s not a Marie book if there aren’t several queer identities represented. We still don’t have enough QTBIPOC in traditionally published YA stories, and she is bringing it.
