Book Series Spotlight: The Turning Series by J.Q. Davis
As a reviewer, reader, and blogger. I always love when an author takes the idea of Zombies and makes it their own. This series is by far one of my fav's. I messaged Davis and I was like I'm doing this. I love this series and everyone needs to know about it. So grab a copy, all the links are below...
The first one in the series is.. Turning Grace (The Turning Series #1). It also won an award: Medal Winner of the 2014 New Apple Book Awards in the E-Book Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror Category.
Blurb:
Life or death? It all seems to be the same for Grace… Some of us have been there before -- falling for the hot, popular jock who just so happens to be dating the hot, popular girl in school. Your snarky-but-always-right bestie insists you make a move, but you’re not so much into putting yourself out there. Then it happens, and suddenly you find yourself eating a cat on your neighbor’s porch. No? Never happened to you? Well, Grace Watkins can’t say the same. Her hunger is growing with each day that passes and her urges are getting harder to control. No one can explain why her body is changing, except one man.

Grace can't seem to accept this. After losing control and committing the ultimate sin…murder, she finds herself on a secluded island with a few other “Zombrids” who share the same appetite. Dr. Roberson claims he can help her, but how far will he go? There are secrets at Everlasting Paradise. Who will escape them? (less)

BLURB
Serum Z has mutated, and the race for a cure has begun. As the world falls victim to Dr. Roberson’s creation, Grace and her fellow Zombrids find themselves trying to clean up his mess. Thousands of people are “turning” as the moments pass by, and soon they are preparing to throw themselves right in the middle of it all. Grace learns to love who she is, and the answer to salvation lies within her. But is it enough? Serena is there from the very beginning. The independent waitress struggled her entire life to find happiness and when she finally does, it is all taken away from her by one bite. Fighting to survive the zombie apocalypse is one thing, but she can’t win the battle of losing her humanity. While the darkness inside of Serena strengthens with every zombie she kills, so does her rage for the man who started it all. She must find Dr. Roberson to avenge her true love’s death. But while traveling the road with a companion and his zombie daughter, she is led to a teenage girl who is half human, half zombie. Serena and Grace are worlds apart, but can they work together to save civilization?
