Publisher's summary

Audie Award, Paranormal, 2016

Fifth in the fun, urban fantasy series that "shines in a crowded genre" (USA Today).

Angel finds herself in redneck hell when hordes of people descend on her hometown for the Deep South Zombie Fest - complete with zombie 5K runs, shamble-a-thons, costume contests, zombie paintball hayrides, and mock-zombie hunts. She intends to avoid the whole mess and focus on her upcoming college midterms - with the help of her stash of illicit zombie drugs - but that all changes when a decapitated body turns up at the edge of town....

Angel can't stay out of trouble😊

I am still loving the adventures of this delightfully country zombie. She is irreverent but continues to try to rise above her past while dealing with her vibrant need for brains. I hope there is more coming in this series. I laughed out loud a lot while listening. The narrator is fantastic!

BRAINS!!!

Would you consider the audio edition of White Trash Zombie Gone Wild to be better than the print version?

I have not read the books........but why would I want too!!!! Allison McLemore has brought this series to life. Southern style Zombified life!!

What did you like best about this story?

I just really like how relatable Angel is.....even if she is a Zombie!

Which scene was your favorite?

Where Angel goes Zombie on Bear, Nick's dad!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There are several moments in the book, but I guess the parts that relate to Angel's dad.

Any additional comments?

I can't wait to hear more from Angel Crawford!

Glad I reconsidered!

After book 4, I was ready to give up on this series. I thought that book was a little too vulgar, and the language got quite a bit too extensive. However, the allure of McLemore's narration caused me to have second thoughts, and enough time had passed that I decided to go ahead and get book 5. I am really glad that I did! This book was not nearly as offensive, and the story was very good! It felt a lot more like the first couple of books. Allison McLemore really has the narration for these stories dialed in, and makes them a lot of fun. Great book, and now on to the next one!

got back in the Grove of Angel

the narrator us exceptional with voices for these characters. Angel shows us all if you really care about others and your self you can conquer

Love this series!! Love this book!!

I just think these books are funny with just enough drama! The narrator does a fantastic job as well! I would recommend anytime!!

Great Series, But Author/Narrator Duo A Necessity

This is such a fun series, and it would lose half its greatness if you separated Rowland and McLemore. Rowland's Angel has become so developed and trailer trash charming due to the unique identity she has been given through McLemore's performance.

The storyline doesn't change a lot as we move from one novel to the next in this series. The challenge of finding brains for substance and the zombie infiltration into the small community and their interactions with each other is pretty much it. But the continuing character development of Angel by Rowland keeps the reader engaged, and McLemore brings Angel to life and makes her sing.

Whether intentional or not, this series was written to be heard.

Fantastic!

Will Angel go back to her life of drug addiction or stay on the straight and narrow? I’ve been waiting for what feels like a long time to find out!

For fifteen months, I have been incredibly anxious about the fate of Angel Crawford. When we last saw Angel, she was in her car shooting up with a zombie combat mod–a drug to enhance performance in combat–she had left over from the rescue mission in New York.

Angel has worked so hard to get free of drugs and get a life she feels is worth living. She has a good job, supportive friends, is going to school, is getting along great with her dad… and yeah, zombie, but it’s manageable. I was SOOOOOOO worried that she’d start slipping back into a drug habit and lose all she’s been working toward.

And she does screw up pretty badly. In an attempt to keep herself supplied with the drug, she puts Phillip, her zombie-baby with a damaged parasite, at great risk, along with her relationship with the Clan, the lab, the morgue, and her dad. Though I’m not typically a nervous reader (that’s Nell’s job), I will tell you that though she screws up, Angel gets it right in the end and I am so relieved!

In addition to dealing with her backslide into addiction, Angel also has to deal with being hunted, of course. The evil Dr. Kristi Charish is once again trying to get Angel captured or killed for her own nefarious purposes. And all of this is happening during a huge Zombie-fest celebrating the launch of the movie that was being filmed in Angel’s hometown two books ago–High School Zombie Apocalypse!!!. I really like that Rowland brought the movie back around into the story; it’s a nice bit of continuity.

I have to say, Allison McLemore does an amazing job narrating this series. I love her voices for Angel, her dad, Nick, and all the others. She does a great job of making each character a unique voice so I can keep them straight in my head. I really need to find out what else she narrates.

I rarely give extreme ratings, preferring to keep a neat and tidy bell curve. But this book and series, particularly in audio, is really, really good. I’m awarding it a fat five! :)
