Greetings Lovers of Paranormal!

It's that time of the month where YOU all nominate what books we'll be reading in March as Group Reads!

We have the following categories open for nomination:

READER PICK - this is for a widely available, mass market book that comes in paperback and ebook on at least 3 distribution platforms and the library Overdrive catalog. Kindle Unlimited 'exclusive' books are specifically disqualified [*sorry, kids, your Fab-5 BOTM MOD is a Nook girl!*]

INDIE PICK - this is for an independently published book where the author does all the work themselves. Kindle-only books are okay. Authors are permitted to nominate their own books.

SERIES PICK - our brain-eating binge will continue on with Book 4 of the Zombie Fallout series by Mark Tufo, Zombie Fallout 4: The End Has Come and Gone, so reserve that puppy on your local inter-Library loan!

Zombie Fallout 4 The End Has Come and Gone ... by Mark Tufo

So drop your nomination into the thread below! Remember, one man, one vote in EACH category! Because we use the Random.org Randomizer, authors are allowed to nominate their own books. Winners will be tabulated and announced on the first of March.

Be epic!

Mark of the Breenan (Breenan Series, #1) by Emma Shelford


message 14: by Michael (new)

Michael Peck (michaelalanpeck) | 5 comments I'd like to nominate my contemporary fantasy for the indie pick, if I may. The blurb:

"Paul Reid died in the snow at seventeen. The day of his death, he told a lie—and for the rest of his life, he wondered if that was what killed him."

And so begins the battle for the afterlife, known as The Commons. It's been taken over by a corporate raider who uses the energy of its souls to maintain his brutal control. The result is an imaginary landscape of a broken America—stuck in time and overrun by the heroes, monsters, dreams, and nightmares of the imprisoned dead.

Three people board a bus to nowhere: a New York street kid, an Iraq War veteran, and her five-year-old special-needs son. After a horrific accident, they are the last, best hope for The Commons to free itself. Along for the ride are a shotgun-toting goth girl, a six-foot-six mummy, a mute Shaolin monk with anger-management issues, and the only guide left to lead them.

Three Journeys: separate but joined. One mission: to save forever.

But first they have to save themselves.

The Journeyman (The Commons, #1) by Michael Alan Peck

I don't know if March will come in like a lion and go out like a lamb, or the way things have been going here on the North-East Coast of the USA, maybe just come in like a lion and hang around, dumping snow until June, but let's nominate some great books to tide us over until the crocuses peep above the snowpack!
