BONESHAKER

Great summer read.  Wil Wheaton recommended "boneshaker" (probably on a tweet) and I found the book in a bookstore in Boston the same day.  Karma.  Had to purchase it.  Was a quick read.  Steam Punk and zombies - couldn't be to bad?  Turned out to be good.  Nothing high brow here and nothing earthshaking (pardon poor humor) or extremely novel.  Just a good solid story about a young man trying to find out about the father he never knew and a mom trying to protect same child.  Throw in a fictitious steam-punk version of Seattle, zombies, airships, and a diverse set of characters and you get some fun.
