How I Got It: I won it
Picking up where The First Days ends, Fighting to Survive features the further zombie-killing, civilization-saving adventures of a pair of sexy, kick butt heroines and the men who love them. A hundred or so survivors of the zombie plague have found tenuous safety in the walled off center of a small Texas town. Now the hard work of survival begins—finding enough food; creating safe, weather-resistant shelter; establishing laws; and fighting off both the undead who want to eat them and the living bandits who want to rob and kill them.
And the saga continues. Oh my this one was a roller coaster. I still absolutely love the characters in this series. Katie is amazing and full of heart. Jenni is growing on me. She isn't as annoying as in the first book. Nerit is just awesome and stoic and a sniper! Travis is a great addition for the women heavy cast list. Juan also grew on me throughout the book. The plot is full of twists and turns. Every time things seemed to calm down in the fort, another threat popped up. I loved the crazy action scenes. But I also got very connected to the quiet moments. The deaths of the likable characters really hit me. Overall this volume was amazing. Can't wait to dive into the conclusion.
