Fifteen-year-old Megan Berry is a Zombie Settler by birth, which means she's part-time shrink to a bunch of dead people with a whole lot of issues.
All Megan wants is to be normal—and go to homecoming, of course. Unfortunately, it's a little difficult when your dates keep getting interrupted by a bunch of slobbering Undead.
Things are about to get even more complicated for Megan. Someone in school is using black magic to turn average, angsty Undead into flesh-eating Zombies, and it's looking like homecoming will turn out to be a very different kind of party—the bloody kind.Megan must stop the Zombie apocalypse descending on Carol, Arkansas. Her life—and more importantly, homecoming—depends on it.
MY REVIEW
This is the first book in the Megan Berry series, I liked this book, it was lighthearted and funny. Made me wish I was that age again and that I actually was a Zombie Settler lol. Fifteen year old Megan Berry wasn't born your average kind of girl, she was born a Zombie Settler, someone who helps the dead settle their last wish and afterwards returns their body to their grave so they can rest in peace. But for the last 5 years her powers were dormant after a bad experience at the age of ten, that was until the night she is supposed to go on her first date with a popular senior. A zombie shows up at her door and in an effort to hurry it along so she could go on her date she messes up and has to take his arm back to his grave. There at the grave while trying to remember how to get the arm to go back into the grave she meets Ethan, an old friend and fellow Zombie Settler from before her bad experience 5 years earlier. Soon she has feelings for Ethan,but everything soon starts to go wrong,someone is using black magic to bring the dead back to kill people. Megan has her suspicions of Monica, also a fellow Zombie Settler. But things aren't what they really seem in Megan's life and she soon learns the hard truth about being a Zombie Settler,her past, and her present life.
