Resumen del Editor
An alien plague. A sixteen-year-old girl. A fight to save the world.
When a rare meteor shower unleashes a mind-altering infection, the people Alex loves begin to change. They’re smarter, faster, emotionless, and they have a plan. One that doesn’t include her.
Guided by cryptic clues left behind by her deceased father, Alex follows a trail of increasingly shocking discoveries. Earth’s history isn’t what she learned in school, and a new hive mind threatens to rewrite the future.
Alex is a fighter, but pursued by both friends and an unknown enemy, it will take everything she has to fulfill her destiny. Desperate to save her little brother, she flees to the mountains surrounding her home, where the only chance for humanity has lain hidden for thousands of years.

Historia
Amy is watching TV when the world is attacked by Them. Most of the population is overtaken, but Amy manages to survive - and even rescue "Baby" a toddler she finds in an abandoned supermarket. Then, after years of hiding, they are miraculously rescued and taken to New Hope, a colony of survivors living in a former government research compound. While at first the colony seems like a dream, with plenty of food, safety, and shelter, New Hope slowly reveals that it is far from ideal. And Amy soon realizes that unless things change, she'll lose Baby - and much more.

When Abbey’s best friend, Kristen, vanishes at the bridge near Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, everyone else is all too quick to accept that Kristen is dead, and rumors fly that her death was no accident. Abbey goes through the motions of mourning her best friend, but privately, she refuses to believe that Kristen is really gone. Then she meets Caspian, the gorgeous and mysterious boy who shows up out of nowhere at Kristen’s funeral, and who keeps reappearing in Abbey’s life. Caspian clearly has secrets of his own, but he’s the only person who makes Abbey feel normal again.

Something happened that night in the woods at Camp Red Hawk. But all Joel and Leah can recall is sneaking out for a late hike with five camp friends and that only the two of them and their friend Mike returned. They have no memory of what happened to the others. No memory of anything after leaving the camp. In the years that follow, they realize something has changed inside of them. They are different from others in ways they never should be. In ways that send their lives down disturbing and terrifying paths.

Mason has never known his father, but longs to. All he has of him is a DVD of a man whose face is never seen, reading a children’s book. One day, on a whim, he plays the DVD for a group of comatose teens at the nursing home where his mother works. One of them, a beautiful girl, responds. Mason learns she is part of an experiment intended to render teenagers into autotrophs—genetically engineered, self-sustaining life-forms who don’t need food or water to survive.

Fast paced action
Fast paced overall book about Alex dealing with a plague that ends up effecting many people that she cares for. Now it is up to her, her dad’s clues, and a friend to hopefully find the cure before those infected decide to do awful things to those that weren’t affected. Will she get the cure? Will it actually save everyone? Thought it was great the author actually narrated her own book she did a great job.

decent twist on other myths.
I got a copy of this for free in audiobook form in exchange for an honest review.
It was an interesting new take on some existing myths and ideals.
Had some odd and corny moments but held my interest through the whole book.
I did like it and the narrating was good.
I'm curious to see where the story goes from here.
I DID like that the book ended with some closure on some things. I was worried that it would leave me hanging and it didn't.

YA SciFi
I was hooked from the beginning. The author had me intrigued and I wanted to see where she was going to take us. It is not a bad book and other young adults might like it. It is suitable for all since there is no profanity or sexual content and some mild violence.
I thought the author who narrated the book was not that bad, I only wish that she would put more emotion when she is voicing the characters. I want to feel when they are angry, upset, happy without being told. But other then this she voiced the characters out quite well.
I would recommend it to those who love SciFi, YA and Dystopia.

A mix of Indian Jones and Tomb Raider.
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
This book was very good. I was surprised how good this book would be. This book opens with Alex, her mom, Baxter, her dog, and her brother, Jacob, and the rest of their town going to see a meteor shower. After the meteor shower that is when it goes left; but in a good way.
If you have ever seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Tomb Raider, and Indiana Jones then you know what I am talking about. This gave me all those vibes without all of the hysterics and all of the sex.
Alex is a 16 year old just trying to hang out with friends and play soccer. She is not Lara Croft nor is she Indiana Jones. With her new BBF, Chris, and Baxter she is tasked to save the world.
There are a lot of twist and turns and a lot of WTF moments. I am super glad that I finally listened to this story. There is just something about Alex and her situation that wanted me to see her do great. She was not a dumb main character and I am glad for that.
Even though this book is technically YA it does not read like that. Someone can be 13 reading this book and have just as much enjoyment as someone who is 80 reading this book. There are very few authors that are able to write a book that can transcends the age barrier.
I cannot wait to see what happens in the next story since this is a trilogy. I want to know if the townsfolk know what they have done to their community members. From what little that I can gather it seems as though they kept their memories so they should have some idea that they were being controlled.
Tara Ellis not only does a great job writing this story but she does a great job also narrating her own work.

A Historical Mythological Spin
Infected is written in first person, present tense and unfortunately falls into the abyss of bombarding listeners/readers with mundane details of every single movement, thought, and anticipation. It created a tedious storytelling line, dragging in places and allowing me to lose interest or my place.
It’s littered with a plethora of sentences beginning with adjectives, adverbs, dangling participles, and prepositional phrases. With the voice inflections and tones, it was perhaps more evident to a listener than a reader.
The simplicity of the compound sentences seemed like it was written for younger readers (like the Samantha Wolf series) instead of the genre for teens; the two halves felt clunky and very unrelated.
I did like Alex and her little brother. Her new friend/love interest was a nice addition, with his vast knowledge and hypotheses as they worked towards a resolution. I’m pleased this book was subtle and sweet with the romantic development and did not insinuate a love triangle. That being said, it still felt the friendship was quick and not fulfilling.
The storyline itself, was unique and was the underlying reason I completed this book and feel somewhat inclined to finish the trilogy.
I was devastated to not like this story as much as I had anticipated. I’ve enjoyed several of Ms Ellis’ others works and had expected this book to be equivalent with its writing, characters, and plot. I was anxious to score this book just as highly!
Although a trilogy, this book had a nice resolution and did not leave the readers on a high precipice. It provided closure for most but still leaves the quest to be completed.
In conclusion, I feel I’m at a crossroad. I can neither recommend nor discourage anyone from picking up this book (thus the middle of the road 3 stars), but I’m also unsure which audience would thoroughly enjoy or destroy it in a review.

Interesting
Typical of YA literature there are quite a few gaps in logic, but overall the story was entertaining. The characters were well thought out. No overt political or social agendas. No sexual content. I don’t usually enjoy YA content but I found this one held my interest. I would recommend.
Two minor issues with narration. Someone please tell her how to pronounce “writhed” and “hearth”. I’m just assuming those are the two words she was going for.

Intriguing story line and easy to listen to
Would you listen to Bloodline again? Why?
Yes, the story draws you in. It's fun to listen to mysteries again to see the story unfold knowing what the end will be. Also, Tara's voice is very easy to understand and listen to. I've listened to many audio books, and there are times when the tone of the voice is too low, or inflections are in strange places that I believe distract from the telling of the story. Tara is every bit as good as some of the paid actors who narrate for audio.
What does Tara Ellis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I think it is interesting hearing the author read their own stories (as long as they are talented enough to do so:)), because you experience the characters exactly how they had envisioned them. They created them, and now they are able to bring them even more to life.
Any additional comments?
My husband stayed up late and finished this book in 2 nights! He never does that. He was completely drawn in to the exciting plot. We are looking forward to listening to more from Tara Ellis.
