If you’re looking for something to read that suits the season, I’m going to reiterate my hearty endorsement of Mira Grant’s Feed and Deadline. Feed is the first in the trilogy and while it is a trilogy, each book is a solid standalone story. Suspenseful (Feed was literally heart-pounding), engaging and thought-provoking. Not your typical zombie read. Both books are $7.99.
So you’re not into zombies? Chelsea Cain’s ‘Heart’ series is excellent crime fiction with a wicked awesome villain and a fucked up protagonist. All of the best and worst things that can happen to characters are up in these books. Heartsick, the first in the series, is just $4.99.
These are all great books which make great weekend reads.
