Superjail meets Robot Chicken meets Family Guy. If you actually get that description, then, (1) you're wack and (2) you're going to love these four books that range from absurdly funny to gloriously grotesque. Learn to impress hot sorority chicks with your ability to diagnose like a doctor ("Is that a goiter or are you really a dude?" always makes a great pick-up line), voyeuristically take pity on suckers who try to find love in the personal ads, read about normal people turned raging psychopaths by a mysterious contagion, and spy on an anonymous support group of the Undead. These books will make you laugh out loud or feel seriously disturbed—either way, they're weirdly cool.

Breathers
A Zombie's Lament
Written by S. G. Browne
In this RomZomCom (Romantic Zombie Comedy), a newly minted zombie attends Undead Anonymous and finds camaraderie
in a recent sexy suicide who has a taste for consuming cosmetic products with formaldehyde and a car crash victim with an exposed brain
and a penchant for Renaissance pornography. But when the trio meets a rogue zombie who tries to take them back to their former
human selves—the result is nothing short of darkly funny, touching, and squirm-worthy reading.

Contagious
From the author of Infected
By Scott Sigler
An epic, exhilarating story of humanity's battle against a horrific enemy—a mysterious pathogen that turns ordinary people into cold-blooded killers. As the human race fights back, the disease responds—getting smarter and more sophisticated, driven seemingly by some malevolent intelligence. Catapulting the reader into a world where humanity's life span is measured in hours and the president's finger hovers over the nuclear button, Infected author Scott Sigler takes us on a breathtaking, hyper-adrenalized ride filled with terror and jaw-dropping action. A truly grand work of suspense, science, and horror from a new master.
