Review

I received this audio book for free for an honest review, thank you to the Author.

I was a little worried about reading another Zombie book after being really disappointed with Feed!

Are you a recovering acoholic? An ex drug user? A victim of some sort of solvent abuse? Then these words will come as a surprise to you YOU ARE THE LUCKY ONES!!!!

The reason for this, you carry the gene!! The gene that stops you from being smelt by the zombies "deadheads" that are taking over the world.

This was a very cleverly written book, it makes a good discussion point, in what would stop you being found by zombies (if they were real obviously)

As well as 8 people trying to find their way through to Mexico, these poor guys can't get a break after a nuclear station becomes compromised (due to no one working them anymore) and the air turns toxic.

The characters are written really well and you hear the back stories of why and how they became addicts.

After finding a camp full of (ex) addicts on the way, the gang finally find a safe place.

The books ending was a little bit too saccharine sweet for me, but I also love a HAE, so to be honest it ended how it should have done.

What a lovely story ♡♡

Loved it !!!!

Umm this book was okay but not brilliant.
It follows the story of Jake & Eve and there on off, on off, on off relationship.
Basically that was the whole book, they were in love and had "explosive" sex, Jake disappeared for 10 years and then just turns up and expects to get back together with Eve, whadya know, she takes him back!
Queue more explosive sex, an argument or 3, more sex and a little bit more sex thrown in.
Now I don't know about you but I loves me a bit of smut, but I was pretty bored with all the shagging in this book, I found myself skimming the book by the end.
I'm not sure whether I will be reading book 2.

The narrator was a little bit too monotone for me, her voices were all the same and didn't really have much difference to them.

Okay let me 1st start by saying that if I was a 14 year old girl I would be gushing, fangirling and 5 ☆'ing this bad boy all over the place!!

Only problem is that I'm not, I'm 40.....ish and this books was just a little too sickly sweet for me, the main characters were too perfect (even though they were both transplant patients) and everything just fit into place a little bit too perfectly for me.

Again I am not saying that it was a bad book, the story is actually lovely, but I need a little bit more meat in my books, this was a little fluffy kitten whereas I would prefer the kitten to also have razor sharp claws!!

Narration was good although when she was doing the male voice for Phillip I couldn't help thinking that she sounds just like Milhouse from The Simpsons, and it made me grin every time!

I liked the idea of seeing the story in both POV however sometimes it did seem to drag as it is the same story again and again.

Over all, I think this is a definite story for people who like light fluffy romances, not my cup of tea personally but not a bad book at all :○)

What a lovely coming of age book this was, I'm so glad I clicked the button to read this and not skip over it!

Jolia is a young girl that used to have braces, she doesn't have them anymore but that doesn't stop her from being so paranoid about her "donkey teeth" and the whispers and laughing behind her back.

She is so timid that she stops talking, not completely but to stand in front of her class and talk publicly is her worst nightmare!

She is failing in her speech classes because of this, so her teacher gets the bright idea to put her slap bang into a speech team!

The thing is Jolia is so embarrassed about failing her class that she cannot tell anyone, not even her best friend why, so she goes with it and steps in front of the audience!!

This was such a nice story, I really felt for Jolia, and a lot of the characters were very relatable, I mean didn't everyone have a friend that used to drop you as soon as a boy came on the scene?

Narration for the characters were spot on, I was never wondering who was talking or correcting words or phrases in my head while I was listening to the story.

A solid 4☆ listen!

I do loves me a love story ♡♡

This particular story is about Calla, she is a girl with many scars, emotionally and physically.
She is a hard working student that is working her way up to being a nurse, that is until her mother does something unspeakable, and she has to return back to her old home town to track her down.

Her friends think her mother is dead so she lies and says she is going away for a weekend.

Calla starts at the first place her drunken, druggie of a mother would be, the bar!
Here she bumps into the panty melting hotness of Jax ♡♡

Okay, so I am a fickle flake, I jump from book boyfriend to book boyfriend, I am what you would call a fictional slut, but ohhh my word Jax!!!

He has made it to the top spot of my want-to-hump-his-leg list !!

A pretty perfect 5☆ read!
