Welcome! I write about learning, mental health, personal finance, fantasy and non-fiction books, productivity, mindset, and prioritizing.
Up for some zombie post-apocalypse that is also a beautiful story you can enjoy and admire? If so, The Last of Us is perfect for you.
What is it about?
After a short intro, the series begins 20 years after a parasitic fungus called Cordyceps has turned most of the population into infected, bloodthirsty “walkers” (yes, associations with The Walking Dead).
We follow Joel (Pedro Pascal), a smuggler in a Quarantine Zone in Boston. Joel must escort Ellie (Bella Ramsey) across the United States. Ellie is a teenage girl who is apparently immune to the infection.
My thoughts
The Last of Us is an irresistible story in a post-apocalyptic adventure world, which is a world I really enjoy visiting. It’s so beautiful and takes you on a silent, nerve-wracking journey. The interactions and the settings are magnificent. The Last of Us is, in short, addictive. I love it!
