My absolute favorite zombie novel this year was Monster Island by David Wellington. I highly recommend it. I've heard a lot lately about Breathers. Let me know what you think of it!

Noticed you liked Breath, Eyes, Memory, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my novel since it's also about a young girl struggling to grow up in a violent atmosphere. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm currently out of physical copies). If you're interested, send me your e-mail address (mine is mail@christophertusa.com), and I'll send you the e-book. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Thanks,

When You Find Peace

There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace? If they have not, there is something wrong with them -- so keep seeking! If what you do has brought you inner peace, stay with what you believe is right.

The way of peace is the way of love. Love is the greatest power on earth. It conquers all things.

No one can find inner peace except by working, not in a self- centered way, but for the whole human family.

World peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it.

We who work for peace must not falter. We must continue to pray for peace and to act for peace in whatever way we can, we must continue to speak for peace and to live the way of peace; to inspire others, we must continue to think of peace and to know that peace is possible.

To attain inner peace you must actually give your life, not just your possessions. When you at last give your life - bringing into alignment your beliefs and the way you live then, and only then, can you begin to find inner peace.

When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.

~ Quotes by Mildred Norman Ryder
Peace Pilgrim (1908 - 1981)

Thanks for adding my library, Blythe. I'm trying to make it more comprehensive and reflective of my actual reading past and present, but it goes slowly, I'm afraid.
