My Life as a White Trash Zombie is an excellent book by Diana Rowland. To date, this is her only zombie book; however, it was a good one.
From the publisher:
“Angel Crawford is a loser
Living with her alcoholic deadbeat dad in the swamps of southern Louisiana, she’s a high school dropout with a pill habit and a criminal record who’s been fired from more crap jobs than she can count. Now on probation for a felony, it seems that Angel will never pull herself out of the downward spiral her life has taken.
That is, until the day she wakes up in the ER after overdosing on painkillers. Angel remembers being in a horrible car crash, but she doesn’t have a mark on her. To add to the weirdness, she receives an anonymous letter telling her there’s a job waiting for her at the parish morgue–and that it’s an offer she doesn’t dare refuse.
Before she knows it she’s dealing with a huge crush on a certain hunky deputy and a brand new addiction: an overpowering craving for brains. Plus, her morgue is filling up with the victims of a serial killer who decapitates his prey–just when she’s hungriest!
Angel’s going to have to grow up fast if she wants to keep this job and stay in one piece. Because if she doesn’t, she’s dead meat.
Literally.”
This book will give you a new way of looking at the zombie perspective. Never before had I thought of a zombie as anything other than the shambling dead. I never considered that eating brains is what made them seem human. After reading this book, it made me look around in my own life and see who were the zombies that could be the undead in my own world.
This book was an easy read that not only had me turning pages to find out what was happening next, but it also kept me laughing with every comment dripping with sarcasm. I recommend this book to anyone that is tired of the overly sappy romance novels and also loves zombies.
