The apocalypse? Check. Zombies? Check. Romance? Check. Count me in for all three!

A orphanage for magical children out in the middle of nowhere is the setting for this amazing book by TJ Klune.
The House in the Cerulean Sea (Cerulean 1)
Amazing fantasy series. Carissa Broadbent outdid herself with this book and this series. I’m sure excited to see if being released mainstream since I read the original published copies.
Daughter of No Worlds (The War of Lost Hearts, 1)
Loved this book. There was a lot of setup for the trilogy so it did take a little while to get going. The ending has made me excited to read book 2. Viking inspired.

House of Blight: A Novel|Hardcover
V. E. Schwab takes on vampires! This book flips back and forth between historical settings while following three female vampires.
Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil
While this was once fanfic, it’s been rewritten to stand in its own. The story was super engaging while the romance was a super slow burn. It looks like this is going to be a trilogy which I didn’t realize when I bought it.

Campy, horror novel set at the Goat Valley Campground. There are rules for the campers and if they don’t follow them, they may not survive their time there.
