Sorry if this is in the wrong place, however it is research for my books/interesting websites just recommendations that I'm after really. Basically I'm new to writing so I'm after some similar books to the ones I'm planning on writing. As the books that I own and write are not really in the same category. Anyway the book types I'm after; Girl going through high school (interesting events that happen would be great). This is just going to be a short introduction story, to one of my major series (potentially). Post Apocalyptic books; needs emphasis on describing surroundings etc. After like a Fallout 3/New Vegas setting if you have played any of them games. Book similar to the film Crazies. This is just for a book about a town getting infected/people surviving. I will be purchasing the ones that sound like they are on the money, so if any of you have done one of these books and they are on Amazon I'll be grabbing it.
