Book Review: How the White Trash Zombie Got Her Groove Back by Diana Rowland

My Review: 

I feel like I finally got everything I wanted with this book. Diana Rowland's finally hit her stride with this series. It fixed everything I've been complaining about and more, and I can't wait for the next book.

She's supposed to be white trash--which I feel like I got to see more of--and a former drug addict--which I got to see more of that mindset. She's still a bit too aware of everything, but also, I feel like with everything she's been through, she's earned it. She's learned to assess her situation properly, and she has the makings of a great leader. I just wish I got to see her get to that point instead of her being like that from book one. BUT this book was by far my favorite. I could see myself reading it again.

The new developments with the zombies are amazing, and I love all the scientific stuff happening. The action scenes are always a pleasure, as they're action-packed and a lot of fun. I love the characters, and, boy, did Kyle get a bit too relatable for me at one part. This one was creative and clever, and I'm so looking forward to book 5.

Summary: 

Horror meets humorous urban fantasy in fourth book in the White Trash Zombie series • Winner of the 2012 Best Urban Fantasy Protagonist by the RT Awards

Our favorite zombie Angel Crawford has come a long way from her days as a pain-pill-addicted high school dropout with a felony record. After a year highlighted by murder, kidnapping, and the loss of her home, all she wants to do is kick back, relax, and maybe even think about college.

But when key members of the “Zombie Mafia” go missing, she has no choice but to get involved. Angel is certain Saberton Corporation is behind the disappearances, yet she can’t shake the sense that a far deeper conspiracy is at work. With the small band of friends she can trust, Angel strikes out to track down the missing zombies.

From a seedy redneck bar in the backwoods of south Louisiana to a high society cocktail party halfway across the country, Angel claws her way through corporate intrigue, zombie drugs, and undead trafficking. In no time at all she's embroiled in kidnapping plits and hostage negotiations—though for once she's the one calling the felonious shots. Add some breaking and entering, criminal damage, and a wee bit of terrorism, and Angel's up to her undead ears in the kind of trouble she excels at.

But when unexpected danger threatens to destroy her, all the brains and bravado in the world may not be enough to keep her from going to pieces.
