Hungry Business: A Short StoryHungry Business: A Short Story by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had no idea what Hungry Business was about when I started reading it. I just knew I enjoyed the last story I read by Maria DeBlassie, and the cover totally pulled me in. I really enjoyed this book. It is written with so much imagery, and is perfectly written as a short story. I didn’t have the feeling of lacking, or sudden endings, like with many short stories. It shocked me to see that it was only 17 pages. Highly recommend for a quick read. Hungry Business tells the story of a woman’s struggle with trying to find love, during a zombie apocalypse. It is written like an inner monologue, as if we are reading her thoughts and feelings. It took me a while to realize she was being literal in her descriptions of the men only having one thing on their mind, and being dead inside… Which I loved even more when it “clicked” for me. I’ve never been into zombie movie/book/shows, but this was pretty good, not gory.
