1.Risen - Jan Strnad (5,473 Locations) - Kindle
This book really clicked with me around 65% in. Awesome back from the dead story. Great for October. - B+
2.Night of the Living Trekkies - Kevin David Anderson (256 Pages) - nook
Fast, fun little zombie-pocalypse story. Intense and full of gore at points, but just a blast to read, even if you aren't a Trekkie, which I am not. - B+
3.You Suck: A Love Story - Christopher Moore (3,813 Locations) - Kindle
Didn't like it quite as much as the first volume in the trilogy, but still very funny and a great read. - B
4.Guardian of the Mountain - David Dalglish (831 Locations) - Kindle
Short, creepy little story by one of my new favorite authors. Doesn't touch the quality of the Half-Orc series, but then again I wouldn't expect it to given it's short length. - B+
