Book Review: Zombie Queen of Newbury High by Amanda Ashby (175)

September 29, 2009 By Mary

Zombie Queen of Newbury High by Amanda Ashby
LOVED IT

This is a nicely done young adult for those 12 and above. I thought the cover was just perfect and although the story was a little predictable, it was nice break from all of the vampire and werewolf stories I have read lately. There is not much for parents to get worked up over here, just a hypochondriac best friend that of course gets Mia out of a bad zombie situation that she helped create. I do have to give the author bonus points for a few surprises at the end. I could really see this as the beginning of a series for Mia.
Product Description
Quiet, unpopular, non-cheerleading Mia is blissfully happy. She is dating super hot football god Rob, and he actually likes her and asked her to prom! Enter Samantha—cheerleading goddess and miss popularity— who starts making a move for Rob. With prom in a few days, Mia needs to act fast. So she turns to her best friend, Candice, and decides to do a love spell on Rob. Unfortunately, she ends up inflicting a zombie virus onto her whole class, making herself their leader! At first she is flattered that everyone is treating her like a queen. But then zombie hunter hottie Chase explains they are actually fattening her up, because in a few days, Mia will be the first course in their new diet. She’s sure she and Chase can figure something out, but she suggests that no one wear white to prom, because things could get very messy.
