This book was just okay. The cover art is literally the best part. Seriously, 5 stars to the artist. I do not recommend the audiobook at all - the sad attempt at an Asian accent is horrendous.
The mystery is extremely weak, the entire plot was predictable, the confrontation with the murderer is laughable (the dialogue made me roll my eyes so hard), and the end romance was so cliché I can't believe more people don't find it lazy. The entire end of the book felt lazy to me. It wrapped everything up in a nice little package within maybe, I don't know, 5 pages or so. The pacing of it was just way off.
It's basically Sookie Stackhouse with zombies, but with fewer distinct characters and a less intelligent main character. Seriously, down to the best friend of someone the main character cares about being the bad guy.
I loved how a secondary female character talked to Angel about rape, both making sure Angel didn't blame herself and talking about how there are different ways to be violated. I thought it was extremely well done and made me feel all sorts of emotional.
If you like chick lit or the Sookie Stackhouse series, you'll probably like this enough. I didn't hate it by any means. It's just okay which is what the Goodreads rating says 2 stars is supposed to mean, so that's what I'm going with. Don't @ me.
