Book Description:
Scientists are the new rock stars. The infection has been contained for nearly three months, and the world is celebrating.
But humans are still dying. Rebekah Taylor has seen it firsthand. Her husband was killed right in front of her by the very creatures that humans were told they no longer had to fear.
Rebekah is determined to find out who is responsible for the death of her husband and the obvious cover-up.
Fueled with revenge, she begins to find answers that lead to one frightening conclusion. The apocalypse might be over, but the battles are just beginning.
Oh my god Karice Bolton is an evil genius!
RecruitZ follows
Rebekah on a mission to find out what really caused zombies to attack and kill
her husband in a world where the zombie population is supposed to be under
control. I really enjoyed Bolton’s style of writing. It was fast paced from the
start and the thing I loved most was that it wasn’t your typical zombie book.
There was a lot more substance than I was initially expecting,
which is awesome. This book really surprised me. It wasn’t exactly what I was
expecting, but I say that in the best way possible. Bolton throws a lot of
twists and turns at the reader and just when you think something is going one
way, it veers to left field and you’re just like oh my god what just happened?!
It’s perfect. I also love the characters. Rebekah is badass
and I love that she doesn’t give up even though her friends sort of think she’s
being a bit dramatic. They don’t really believe what she tells them about her
husband at first. So, Rebekah goes out to prove herself right and to find out
what’s really happening and boy the things she finds!
One of those things is Preston, who lost his sister to
zombies. I love, love, love Preston. He partners up with Rebekah and they work
together to figure out who and what TRAC is and what it all has to do with
zombies. I don’t want to give too much away because the book is really good,
one of my favorite zombie books and I’ve read quite a few because they terrify
me and I love scaring the crap out of myself.
I’m looking forward to see what happens in the next book in
the series and learning even more about the organization…doing the thing they’re
doing. Haha can’t spoil that. Definitely one to recommend!

This sounds like such a fun and intense read! I especially like how character driven it sounds I find for zombie books it's really important or it ends up being mindless gore/zombie action. Ha that was totally an unintentional pun! :D
