De: Lily Anderson

Narrado por: Rebecca Soler

"A fun, fast read...it will resonate with readers who dabble in any sort of arts, dark or otherwise." --NPR.org

"With a singular and hilariously cutting teen voice, UNDEAD GIRL GANG is sure to be one of the most talked-about YA novels of the year." --BookPage

Veronica Mars meets The Craft when a teen girl investigates the suspicious deaths of three classmates and accidentally ends up bringing them back to life to form a hilariously unlikely--and unwilling--vigilante girl gang.

Meet teenage Wiccan Mila Flores, who truly could not care less what you think about her Doc Martens, her attitude, or her weight because she knows that, no matter what, her BFF Riley is right by her side. So when Riley and Fairmont Academy mean girls June Phelan-Park and Dayton Nesseth die under suspicious circumstances, Mila refuses to believe everyone's explanation that her BFF was involved in a suicide pact. Instead, armed with a tube of lip gloss and an ancient grimoire, Mila does the unthinkable to uncover the truth: she brings the girls back to life.

Unfortunately, Riley, June, and Dayton have no recollection of their murders. But they do have unfinished business to attend to. Now, with only seven days until the spell wears off and the girls return to their graves, Mila must wrangle the distracted group of undead teens and work fast to discover their murderer...before the killer strikes again.

Bless-ed Be clear the way for Zombie angst

This book took some perseverance before I actually wanted to continue with the story instead of throwing it away. It was the biggest bummer in the beginning and I wasn’t exactly dreaming of butterflies and rainbows to start.

Yes there are dead people. I don’t think you can call that a spoiler because after all the title does contain the word ‘undead’. This is no Walking Dead though more like Clueless combined with the Mean Girls if you replace Claire and the Plastics with rotting corpses.

The narrator did an ok job. Not one to come up with unique voices for each character. It was a straight read. No flare.

And just to clarify it’s ‘Bless-Ed Be’ not ‘Blesd Be’.

such a cute story

could have EASILY been a disappointment, but the relationship between the girls is so strong. love it

5 F’in Amazing Stars

Great story. Great pacing. Great everything. This book won’t change your life, but it is an amazing wild ride while it last. I loved every minute.

Not what I expected

This book immediately plunged into controversial topics. It felt sac-religious at times. I forced myself to keep reading before making any judgements. Overall, the writing seemed poor and forced. But, I do see young adult themes that are important. If you look over all the high school/teenage drama and bs you might see what what the writer intended to teach you. While I’m fine reading Harry Potter or Dresden Files, this book made me uncomfortable. But the story finally grabbed me and I needed closure.

This was a good book

I enjoyed this book it was humorous and the narrator was great! I look forward to more by this author. I found the story very amusing and it kept my attention the entire time.
