Honestly she could have at least tried to save more people :/
Even in her own household she only tried to save one maid, not mentioning the village, she really gave up before trying, it feels rather evil :/
Realistically, one person can only do so much. Protecting yourself is already an insurmountable task, protecting others is even harder.
How can she save them when she didn't even mention the apocalypse and they were already treating her like a madwoman? She almost failed to ask her brother and maid to come with her too, let alone all of the servants in her household.
And I'm sure she could've shouted for survivors to follow her to her happy house but that would be risky as someone who had been bit could follow her inside. Imagine fighting an infected whilst carrying/protecting an unconscious grown man
And in the novel, she had 20 days to prepare. That's barely 3 weeks to procure information, shelter, food, necessities- and the attack happened way earlier than she expected.
I'm sure she could've saved more lives if she was given enough time though.. it's a shame cause I really liked the villagers too
In the real world, getting beaten hurts like hell and it is long to heal, if even possible. Beaten women and children end up in hospitals or dead every day from family abuse.
I simply cannot agree with the romanization of domestic violence : the MC deliberately put herself in situations that could get her killed and is regularly displayed as indifferent or even enjoying the situation . This is simply insane.
It is ridiculous and dangerous.
Ok i get it, because she gets revenge, it’s all worth it ? It’s part of the process that makes her cool ?
Or is it ?
You’re not stronger when you’re missing half your front teeth or need surgical restoration to fix your nose and face
Fear doesn’t live you, even if some revenge you get
Knowing real victims who barely survived such situations i am at loss when i see how little is made from situations that are way too real for too many people
I love fiction, but i wish writers would not use abuse as a free ticket to make easy stories. I don’t say no one should talk about it, but at least, shouldn’t there be some consideration of the consequences of such tales ?
Safety matters and should always come first
Peace
