Blog tour: Undying (Undying #1) by Valerie Grosjean (ARC review and giveaway)


Publication date: September 29th 2013
Genres: Paranormal, Young Adult, Zombies



Synopsis:

This is a story of love . . . and zombies.

When eighteen-year-old college freshman Christian discovers his dormitory is crawling with the living dead, he knows he has a problem. But once he learns the whole country is overrun by the flesh-eating horde, he must race to protect what matters to him most.

Sixteen-year-old Iris, the girl he loves, is stranded eighty miles away, alone and completely unaware of the gruesome threat surrounding her.

Christian’s plan is to evade the zombies, drive the distance to rescue Iris, and get them both to his family farm—where there are guns, fuel, and everything else they’ll need to survive. His mission seems simple: Get the girl, get to the farm, and stay alive.

Things get complicated when Christian is forced to make an unthinkable choice between Iris and his family. Someone he loves must die, and he must decide.



My review:

I do love me some zombies and I liked this one even though it was a little to fast paced but I guess when the zombie apocalypse is at your door it should all be fast. I liked the emotional aspects of the book, the author brought feelings easiliy to the surface and with all this death and blood and gore, a little romance cant hurt. The ending was a bit of a cliffhanger so the sequel better come soon. As far as characters go, I liked Christian, the main character, and a few people we meet and lose throughout the book, especially Adam, Christians college roomate and Reno, a guy Christian helps along the way. I really disliked Marina, the sister in law, and I didnt really like Iris, the love interest. I am curious to see how it will all unfold and I hope Christian doesnt lose more people dear to him.
