This novel was an action packed thrill ride with tons of suspense and romance along with lots of twists and turns. It definitely kept me on the edge of my seat and eagerly flipping my kindle pages.I will be honest; I am not a zombie type person. I never read anything in the horror genre, but this one sounded like it was more. And it is, its like a mix of action, mystery, adventure, thriller, romance - it definitely shouldn't just be limited to being labeled as horror, and it has a dystopian feel to it as well. Really I was thinking of the Walking Dead tv show when reading, though different, but with the similarities of the "zombiles"I will say its not my kind of book, as a whole. It had its twist and turns that kept it interesting. I really didn't know it was considered horror until after I started reading, and seen someone say that somewhere. I did have to be careful when I read it, not a night before bed like I usually do. I would have bad dreams.So basically Wisteria's life changes when a routine assignment goes wrong and she is left stranded in zombie infested territory. Saved by a mysterious young boy who she has an odd connection with. Bach is an awkward but utterly handsome hero and Wisteria struggles to understand who he is, why he so easily survives in the middle  of the infected . Wisteria starts to wonder if there is anyone she can trust in her life.Bach is a mystery; he had taken Wisteria to his apartment where he lives with 2 friends. He isn't human, and is not even from Earth. He actually thinks humans or Terrans (as his people call them) are animals. Things get strange to me with this part, about Bach being there to see the end of Earth, and that he feels Wisteria is someone from his past, but she doesn't remember. So we have that mystery. Wisteria is actually from Ilse of Smythe, a small city that had survived the Nero disease outbreak. Since the island has so much protection, there are not many cases of biters there.We get a little romance started, with Wisteria and Bach, but they can't be together as its forbidden by his people. I guess so, if they see humans as animals.Overall it is an exciting read, and think people who like zombie type, in dystopian type world, with the mysteries too, will love this. I liked it better than I thought I would.Give it a try. 4 1/2 out of 5 stars for me. I highly recommend it to readers who want to try something unique and different from most books out there right nowI got this book free at Amazon, but could have gotten it with the tour too, for my honest review. I just already had it.You can read many excerpts at my blog for the tour, link is in my profile.
