Girl With All The Gifts, Paperback/M. R. Carey

Not every gift is a blessing. Every morning, Melanie waits in her cell to be collected for class. When they come for her, Sergeant Parks keeps his gun pointing at her while two of his people strap her into the wheelchair. She jokes that she won't bite, but they don't laugh. Melanie is a very special girl. 'Both tender and devastating, a page-turner which kept me guessing up to the very last scene' }Naomi Alderman, multi-award winning novelist{
