I stumbled upon this book a few months ago - almost by accident. But it immediately captured my attention. I'm a new convert to books regarding zombies and mythology books always catch my fancy. 
 Molly lives a fairly uncomplicated life. School during the day, working at her father's zombie emporium most afternoons. That is until her sixteenth birthday party and Molly accidentally manages to mess with necro magic that she doesn't understand. She also finds out that she's not a Bartolucci - but rather the guy she's always believed to be her dad is not her real biological father! 
 Her maternal grandparents enter the scene and inform Molly that she's a Legacy at a fancy necromancy private school, Nekyia Academy, where she will have her own personal ghoul to run her errands and a secret society to be a part of. 
 There's so much of this novel that reminded me of Marked (House of Night #1) - from the fact that Molly is some sort of 'chosen one' to the super sugary sweet southern new best friend. There's even the boyfriend that the heroine somehow managed to enthrall with her new magical gifts is along for the ride too. There were just too many similarities between the two stories that I couldn't help but think that one was a poor copy of the other. 
 What I did love about this book was the mythology used. I love the Egyptian angle as it's not something I've read a lot about before. The gods mentioned are kind of bad-ass and I loved their involvement in the novel. I would have loved if there was less time spent on the events covered early in the novel and a lot more on the fantastic and interesting drama that occurred after the half way point as that's where I found this book to be new and exciting. 
 It's a fun and easy read where the magic and mythology used is something I've not seen much of before - I love the necro magic and I can't wait to see what happens next for Molly (there's a bit of a cliff-hanger). There are a number of interesting characters (Roth for one.. he's my favourite by far but also Aunt Leila and Anubis himself) that do may this book more than just another teenage girl who finds out she's magical and important.
