    About this ebook

    X knows she's as good as dead. Seems like the perfect time to start a diary.

    Shacked up in a farmhouse cellar, a doomed survivor calling herself X starts a diary to document her final few days. Much less than a few days if the uglies manage to get in.

     

    X is a post-apocalyptic short story from Jack Croxall, author of Wye.

      A cozy little story following the diary of a teenage girl as she reflects on her life before and after the zombie apocalypse. I loved it.
