Okay, let's take a
deep breath and plunge right in. You knew it was coming. Those who
follow me on certain social media or read my blog know I can't but give
it five vampire kisses. Why? If you are an unsuspecting person, then I'm gonna
keep you in the dark. But let's say I have my selfish reasons to promote
this book. Just joking, I'm gonna spill it out. I won a contest a few months ago and became a character in this book. Yeah, I'm still living from that. You, who have never become a character, can't probably understand the feeling (I don't mean it in some snobbish way, it's a genuine thing) but whoa! It's better that drugs. I think. I don't do drugs.
This book is a last piece of a trilogy (I guess, the word "series" on the cover probably gives the author open doors should he ever feel like writing more) and we finally get to see who of our favourite characters gets to live and how it all turns out for those rare few in the zombie-infested world.
Meanwhile, in the vampire camp things don't go smoothly either and authorities are questioned and deaths occur even in the immortal world. But at least the humans already know for sure the blood-suckers exist and can stop questioning their own sanity and start acting. Because vampires are just another threat since they have a very specific diet, right? Or can they help with the zombies? Should humans eliminate one enemy at a time or kill them all at once?

The author's writing skill is amazing, too. I know that some people hate adjectives but those are exactly what gives the reader the right description of stuff. I could really imagine the characters and scenes in the book. Just perfection :-)=
It's a roller-coaster ride without seatbelts since so many die but hey that's what the apocalypse is about. I advise you not to get attached to characters much. :-)=
