The 3rd book in the White Trash Zombie series. Angel is working hard to get her life on track now that she's a zombie and will live much longer than she ever expected and it's actually going ok. She has a sort of boyfriend who is a cop and good to her, things with her dad are rocky but better than they ever have been in the past, she has friends who care about her and have her back, she has a good job that supplies her with brains, and now she is even studying for her GED. Unfortunately, there is still Saberton out there who kidnapped her and forced her to create a zombie child, Phillip. Now there is a zombie movie being filmed in her small town and things definitely don't seem quite right. Phillip is showing up there and is in bad shape, people are chasing her down again, and the whole zombie-world seems to be going absolutely crazy. Angel is going to need to keep all her brains about her to get through it all.
Ok, this series seems like it should be up there in the fluff department with the Queen Betsy books but it really isn't. The characters grow and change from book to book and deal with situations as well as they are able. Angel continues to take leaps and bounds in her development as we see what a huge heart she has but also what a good brain she actually has as she wants to learn more about the science behind the zombie parasite. She doesn't want handouts but isn't above calling in favors when the situation warrants it. I honestly really like her and how believable she is (ok, except for the whole zombie part). A bummer I'm done with all her books for now and will have to wait probably another year for the next one. I do have the first book in another series by the same author and I hope she takes the same care with those characters.
