Other Books in the Series: You Are So Undead to Me
Megan Berry—Zombie Settler extraordinaire—just wants Pom Squad to trounce Cheer Team in this freakishly funny follow-up to You Are So Undead to Me. But someone's turning coma victims into settler-resistant über-zombies—and everyone thinks it's Megan's fault! Well, except for super-creepy male cheerleader Aaron. (Ew!)
Meg's also being stalked by a hot—albeit undead— seer named Cliff. Can Cliff's premonitions help Megan stop a zombies-on-ice deathscapade and discover who's really behind the coma-killer crusade before an entire army of undead rise up? And when Megan's boyfriend Ethan grows jealous of Cliff, will it end their intra-settler romance?
Stacey Jay's snarky teen-speak is "dead"-on and hysterical! Ally Carter better get used to the smell of grave dirt . . .
Undead Much was just as funny, sassy, and unpredictable as it's predecessor!
I love Jay's take on Zombies it's much different than the normal mindless brain eating beings that you usually associate with the word Zombie... although there are that type of Zombie in this book too! But Megan's job is to help the "undead" with unfinished business so that they can spend their slumber of death in peace... well most of the time, unless someone decides to turn them into those brain eating Zombies... but you can read more about that in the book!
I wasn't sure what to expect with this novel, You Are so Undead to Me, wrapped up pretty nicely, so I had no idea what the sequel had in store. That being said, this is definitely a series that you will want to read in order to fully appreciate the sequel.
Undead Much felt much more like it was part of a series than You Are so Undead to Me Did. There are many more unanswered questions! And I can't really say without being spoilery, but wow! I was sitting on the edge of my seat, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough... awesome mystery and suspense play!The ending for this one left me salivating for me... must be that zombie tendency after reading all that zombie-ness!
All of my favorite characters were present and then my most favorite of all was introduced.. Cliff! Can't wait to see more of his undead cuteness in the rest of the series!
This is a great zombie novel for the apprehensive zombie reader.. not high on the gore-o-meter, great story, suspense, mystery and romance... sounds fantastic to me!
