Undead and Unreturnable

Queen Betsy, Book 4

De: MaryJanice Davidson

Narrado por: Nancy Wu

Though she's the vampire queen, Betsy Taylor is much more like a princess. In MaryJanice Davidson's novels, this high-maintenance monarch is finally coming to terms with her new status.

They say Christmas is a time for friends and family. But with a half-sister who's the devil's daughter, an evil stepmother, a fiend living in her basement, assorted spirits and killers running amok, and a spring wedding to plan with the former bane of her existence, Eric Sinclair, Betsy is not sure she'll survive the holidays.

Oh, right. She's already dead.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sexy, steamy, and laugh-out-loud funny, Davidson's chick-lit foray into the paranormal is delightful." (Booklist)

on to the next

I am so glad this book makes me smile and love the research at the end.

Missing books......I loved this book

Would you listen to Undead and Unreturnable again? Why?

I would listen to it again if I had the earlier books in the series so I could listen to them in the correct order.

What other book might you compare Undead and Unreturnable to and why?

This story has the same kind of quick wit & strong female lead I enjoyed extremely in Molly Harpers supernatural series.

Which scene was your favorite?

I can't choose a favourite scene I just really love the entire story.

Who was the most memorable character of Undead and Unreturnable and why?

Betsy is a straight forward outspoken & sometimes painfully blunt character. I love her in your face ways.

Any additional comments?

The only thing I don't like about this series is that many of the books aren't available !!!
I really hate it when I start a new series only to discover missing books......!

Perfer the written books

What did you like best about Undead and Unreturnable? What did you like least?

I love the sarcasm and snark!

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Can't write anything without spoilers

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes, but sometimes the pauses between chapters make me think the book stopped playing

Did Undead and Unreturnable inspire you to do anything?

Nope. Trying to decide if I should move on to the next audiobook since I have already read the entire series

Love This Series

Love this series. It is a light funny read. The only complaint’s I have about this books is that it is too short and that I think the narrator changed Tina’s voice from the way it was in the first three books. It sounds like it is different to me, not a big complaint but still I had gotten use to the way Tina talked and now it does not seem right.

A firm style

MC comes across as much younger than her nominal age.
As a short piece in line with longer pieces, a lot of key relationships are unclear.

Lots of Fun!

I am listening my way through the Queen Betsy series. All the previous books have been a hoot, and this one does not disappoint. The normal cast of characters is up to the same bumbling mistakes. Betsy still can't nail down a wedding date. Jessica continues to be the sassy mouthed best friend, but now she's in an interesting relationship with Det. Nick, and no one is exactly sure of his motives. The spawn of Satan sister is sweet, but quite scary. Marc and Tina continually make important cameo appearances. And most important, Sinclair--Betsy's king/consort--may not understand why she insist on an official marriage ceremony, since he considers them already married, but he remains super in-love with her. The fireworks in their relationship jump off the page. Throw in a fun mom, crazy step mother, & stinky diapered baby and MaryJanice Davidson has delivered a classic comedy of errors.

Funny Turned Annoying (series)

Any additional comments?

I've read many vampire books and I'm always looking for a good series. When I read the first book in this series I thought it was hysterical. I laughed out loud many times at Betsy's rants and witty comebacks. The second book in the series was easily my favorite and I fell in love with other characters like Mark.

But by the third book I found myself fast forwarding past the rants I use to find funny. The main character Betsy just starts to become extremely annoying. The constant "poor me" rants and whining started to drive me crazy. I only made it to book 7 before I couldn't take what the main character had turned into anymore.

I don't regret the first couple credits I burned on this series and if you're still digging it by book 3 you may just end up liking the whole series. Enjoy it for the mindless entertainment.

Light, Fun Listen

I have almost completed the entire series and because I just keep starting the next one, my reviews are getting behind. The banter is funny and Betsy is so self-centered that you can't help but love her. The narrator is excellent and keeps the book alive.
Be sure you read the books in order, or you could get lost on the references.
What a fun and humorous read!
I will be sorry when I finish the last of the series!

UNBELIEVALBLY FUNNY

ONE MUST READ MARY JANICE DAVIDSON'S UNDEAD AND UNRETURNABLE. THIS BOOK IS UNBELIEVABLY FUNNY, UNUSUALLY IRREVERANT AND ABSOLUTELY A MUST LISTEN: CAREFUL LISTENING WHILE DRIVING A MOTOR VEHICLE. YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF LAUGHING TO HARD DRIVING IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Broken Hearted

I love Mary Janice Davidson!
I love the style of writing and how you can connect with the characters, However I didn't like the way the story was told by WU.
I feel that the manner in which she read the story may have ruined the last book for me.

Other then that I can't wait for her to write her newest book!
