I picked up a copy of this the other day, looking for something cute & brainless (ha!) to read. After flipping through the first few pages, I knew I had a winner when it had me chuckling out loud. 
 The dead walk among us... and they're kind of emo jerks. Teenager Algonquin AKA "Alley the Ice Queen" is overly negative & pessimistic when it comes to love & life in general. She'd rather love `em & leave `em, then sit on the sidelines with her friends & mock the so-called "popular" life rather than become one of them. Especially since the undead & supernatural population have come out of the casket & joined the rest of society. It's only when Alley meets Doug at a local band appearance that she begins to change her cynical outlook to something less pessimistic. But when you're dating a being that doesn't age, what about the future? 
 While this isn't going to win any awards for being the most cerebral read, it is one of the quirkiest reads I've had in a while. Poking fun at several vampire romance stories & cliches (including Twilight), this book had me laughing out loud at several different points in the book. (Don't worry Twilight fans- it's all in good fun.) 
 I really did like the characters & I liked that Alley actually thought through her relationship, something that I don't often see in many supernatural romance books. It's refreshing, to be honest. 
 I just wish that there'd been a little bit more to the book- I'd have loved to have seen more of the friends as well as learn a bit more about the various supernatural creatures. The book mostly focuses on zombies, which is partially because Alley focuses mainly on zombies, but I'd have liked to have learned more about the vamps & weres. 
 This is a great book & I can see many people enjoying it, but in the end it is just a little too short for my tastes. Still, in a genre that is getting flooded with similar entries, this book manages to bring a little something new to a table filled with UF romance clones.
