Kait's Pick:
This is probably going to break my heart, but I am a sucker for this type of book. I can't wait to get my hands on it!
If He Had Been with Me - Laura Nowlin
Paperback336 pages
Expected publication: April 1st 2013


Throughout their whole childhood, Finn and Autumn were inseparable—they finished each other's sentences, they knew just what to say when the other person was hurting. But one incident in middle school puts them in separate social worlds come high school, and Autumn has been happily dating James for the last 2 years. But she's always wondered what if...



The night she's about to get the answer is also one of terrible tragedy.

Beth's Pick -
I've been wanting to read this since I first heard about it way back when.  How does this not sound good!?

PODs - Michelle Pickett
Paperback288 pages
Expected publication: June 4th 2013


Seventeen-year-old Eva is a chosen one. Chosen to live, while others meet a swift and painful death from an incurable virus so lethal, a person is dead within days of symptoms emerging. In the POD system, a series of underground habitats built by the government, she waits with the other chosen for the deadly virus to claim those above. Separated from family and friends, it's in the PODs she meets David. And while true love might not conquer all, it's a balm for the broken soul. 
After a year, scientists believe the population has died, and without living hosts, so has the virus. That's the theory, anyway. But when the PODs are opened, survivors find the surface holds a vicious secret. The virus mutated, infecting those left top-side and creating... monsters.

Eva and David hide from the infected in the abandoned PODs. Together they try to build a life--a new beginning. But the infected follow and are relentless in their attacks. Leaving Eva and David to fight for survival, and pray for a cure.
