With her zombie gal pal Wendy and vampy sidekick Gil, celebrity party girl Amanda Feral is ready to take a big bite out of Seattle's supernatural nightlife. But what's a zombie chick to do when her "Mommie Dearest" gets sick? If you're Amanda Feral, you can either ignore the wicked old witch--or bury the past by visiting Ethel before she kicks it.
Packing their stiletto pumps and plasma into a sketchy rattrap on wheels that used to be a Winebago, Amanda, Wendy, and Gil hit the highway. Of course, they'll have to navigate past some neo-Nazi skinheads, a horny dust devil, a hunky werewolf cop, and an unsightly horde of Kmart shoppers. But for this glamorous gang of ghouls, this trip is about to take a dangerous detour that could give road kill a brand new meaning. .
My thoughts:
What went wrong? I liked book 1, even when she ate people, but here, I was just lost. I just found myself sitting up and saying what? all the time. Maybe it was me, tired, not interested, maybe I should have put it down. But as it was now it was one big what? How did that happen? Excuse me?
It still was semi funny and weird, and then I have nothing more to say. I was confused! What can I write in a review then?
Conclusion:
'I was going back and forth between a 2 and a 1. But I just wished the book to be over so I could get out of the maze in my head. It's a shame, but I can't say I like the book then can I?

Oh no! Still curious about that first book... just don't read on a hungry stomach. LOL
ReplyDeleteHaha, no do eat it then ;)
DeleteI find all the covers in this series seriously outdated, Blodeuedd. It's a bizarre mix of 80s and 90s, don't you think? I have to admit I couldn't get through book #1, it grossed me out too much :)
ReplyDeleteTotally! The just look weird. And the 3rd one is just plain horrid! I do not even wanna think about it
DeleteYes...it was disturbing but hey she is a zombie and even zombies have to eat
ReplyDeleteI liked the book summary as it sounded like it would be a great romp but the whole eating people turns it off for me.
ReplyDeleteWell she is a zombie
Deleteeh. May have to pass on this one. Sounds cool...but meh. :) I like her dress though.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very very strange series
DeleteZombies are not my thing at all, but it does sound like fun. Still, if you could not find a story line or something, I am not going to try it.
ReplyDeleteIt felt like one big mess. I did like book 1 though, but that was cos it was very very weird
DeleteZombies aren't my thing at all either...
ReplyDeleteThey scare me *hides*
DeleteI think I liked this one..I can't remember. I know I did like #1. Gross humor. LOL
ReplyDeleteReally gross humour, but for some reason it really works
DeleteI loved book #1, #2 was meh and I think I liked #3 a little more but that was a while ago so I don't quite remember.
ReplyDeleteHm..really? Dunno, after this one I just feel there are other books I wanna buy and read more
DeleteOh bummer this one didn't work out for you. I agree, that cover is kind of a mess! Thanks for your honesty! :-)
ReplyDeleteA mess of so many things 0_0
DeleteWell, you tried..sounds like there was no hope!
ReplyDeleteNo hope on sight
DeleteIt was...okay. It seemed to lose the spunk the first one had. But was a different journey too. I haven't got the third one yet...don't know...
ReplyDeleteIt was different yes, but I. Oh the spunk was gone as you say. It lost steam
DeleteBummer! I've got the first one to try but not sure I want to now :(
ReplyDeleteThe first one was cool...you can always stop there
