The book this week is Ex-Heroes by Peter Clines. I like superhero stories and zombie stories too so I have high hopes for this one.

The sentence:

Lady Bee slammed her pistol into the back of its skull. She fired three rounds and it flopped on the carpet.

I haven’t started this book yet. I plan to read it next. I can’t wait to find out what ‘it’ is. I hope it's a zombie.
