#1
In the light, the idea of zombies seemed impossible, a fading nightmare.
#2
I let myself relax a bit and enjoy the normalcy of a clear, bright December day, pretending for a moment that everything was all right.

Suddenly, the illusion was shattered, but not by a zombie.

Undying
By Valerie Grosjean
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.

Happy weekend!
This is a quick read. I really enjoyed it and am thrilled to have found a new author who’s writing I like.
Sounds great. I meant to do this, but I will for sure next week. Mr Wonderful goes back to work on Thursday. ^_^
I’m supposed to go back to work on Thursday too. We’ll see as I’m still awful sick.
You’ll enjoy doing these and I’m glad I met Freda!
“Undying”? Is that a pun?
Is it? LOL
