Beach Bodies | AstraDaemon

SPRING OUTBREAK by Calvin Demmer is a short story about a young woman trying to get over a breakup by vacationing with a friend. The author spends a lot of time in the character's head, which is completely unnecessary. This story would've been better as flash fiction, especially if more emphasis had been placed on the action. Unfortunately, the best scenes are limited to only a few pages. What could've been a great outbreak story is more like a bad breakup with some zombies tossed in.

As always,
AstraDaemon
