Here's a quick rundown about what I've downloaded this week on my Kindle.
WARM BODIES
ISAAC MARION
GENRE: HORROR/ ROMANCE
SYNOPSIS: A zombie who yearns for a better life ends up falling in love—with a human—in this astonishingly original debut novel.
R is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he has dreams. He doesn’t enjoy killing people; he enjoys riding escalators and listening to Frank Sinatra. He is a little different from his fellow Dead.
Not just another zombie novel, Warm Bodies is funny, scary, and deeply moving.

CAPTIVE #2
ERICA STEVENS
GENRE: YA/ PARANORMAL ROMANCE
SYNOPSIS: Though she is free of
the palace, rescued from her position as a blood slave, Aria is haunted
by the memories of her time spent within the fortress, tormented by
memories of Braith, the prince that betrayed her and shattered her
heart. Every day is a struggle to get through, and the only solace she
is able to find is with Max, her best friend, and fellow captive. Though
Max does not understand her bond to Braith, he knows some of what she
endured, and helps to ease some of the tattered pieces of her soul.
Aria
slowly begins to salvage the broken parts of her wounded spirit by
throwing herself into the wonder of the woods she had so greatly missed,
and the secure and reassuring love that Max freely gives her. Her world
is thrown into a tailspin again though when a marauding group of
vampires destroy the caves she had found temporary shelter in. Scattered
about the forest, seeking to stay hidden and find her family, Aria is
stunned when Braith, the monster that savaged her heart, reappears.
Stunned by his sudden arrival in her world, Arianna is uncertain if he
has come to recapture her, or to kill her for daring to escape.
REFUGEE
CAPTIVE #3
ERICA STEVENS
GENRE: YA/ PARANORMAL ROMANCE
SYNOPSIS: Whispers, rumors, and
horror stories abound about The Barrens and the strange creatures that
lurk within them. Determined to find the remaining vampires that stood
against his father in the war, Braith knows that it’s dangerous to enter
the inhospitable land, but that they must if they are to have a chance
at gaining allies to help overthrow the king. Though he once knew the
powerful vampires that are rumored to reside within The Barrens, he is
unsure what to expect if they succeed in finding them. He will do
whatever is necessary though to ensure a future for himself and Aria.
Aria is fearful of entering into the land she’s heard nothing but cautionary tales about, but she’s determined to help Braith locate the vampires that may help them with their cause. She is fascinated and amazed by the world they uncover within, one that is unlike anything she has ever seen before. However, the more immersed they become in a world that she doesn’t entirely understand, the more she realizes that it won’t be the war, or even the king that will eventually tear her and Braith apart.
It will be her.
