✯✯5 Zombie Filled Stars!!!✯✯

Woohoo Kate L. Mary is headed back into the zombie apocalypse world!!! I read her Oklahoma Wastelands and I’m kicking myself for not knowing about her Broken World Series until after it was finished. 

Rowan is away for college. She was adopted and her parents are very involved in her life, ESP her mom. Which is why she chose a college so far away. 

There’s a deadly virus spreading across the U.S and people are dropping like flies. Rowan just wants to go home and be with her parents even though they’ve told her to stay there bc it’s safer. Rowan decides to take matters into her own hands. 

Rowan gets cleared for traveling. Then she meets Kiaya and Kyle and together they start their travel home.  Kiaya’s very quiet and Kyle seems to be the talkative one. Until he starts getting sick and they’re forced to pullover in Vega, Texas and get a hotel room. 

Almost instantly Rowan meets Devon and she def doesn’t want anything to do with him. Rowan and Kiaya take turns looking after Kyle until he passes away. 

Rowan gets some helpful information from a stranger and it gets her thinking things are definitely going to get worse before they get better. It’s a matter of survival of the fittest. 

Before they can gather supplies and get outta there they learn the dead are coming back from the dead as zombies. Luckily for them Devon was there just in time. 

They’re three strangers trying to survive. They agree to travel together. The plan is go get Kiaya’s younger sister and go to Rowan’s house and then they’ll figure out what’s next afterwards. 

Getting to the endpoint is proving harder then they ever thought possible. Who can they trust on their travels. 

OMG!!! I’ve read a decent amount of apocalypse and zombie books. Every book it’s happened awhile ago, some their entire lives. This is entirely different then every book I’ve read!! 

You see the first zombies along with Kiaya and Rowan. See how they go from doing things by the book to “stealing” supplies. Learning just how to survive and to trust complete strangers. 

Kate L. Mary did such an amazing job writing this story. She has such an amazing way of writing that you find yourself wanting to be friends with the characters. Which is crazy bc they’re fighting zombies but Kate’s just that good of an author. 


 I read it in one day bc I was hooked from page one to the ending. By the last chapter I was crying right along with Rowan. I’m invested in Kiaya, Devon, Rowan and their friends getting their HEA. I hope book two releases soon bc I’m dying to know what happens next.
