White Trash Zombie Apocalypse

We have a a small town with zombies... where they are filming a zombie movie. Right. It also involves dead people (who don't move anymore) and everyone is doing secret shit.

You know, so far this was my least favourite book of this series. It's still fun to have a zombie book with actually intelligent zombies who aren't the enemy or a hostile element in the world, but the protagonists who do their things. Here they even have almost like a zombie mafia! How is that not cool?
Though I feel there isn't much of a world opening up so far. This is the third book and the overarching story is... not all that monumental. Not saying all series need to have one, but here I feel it would deserve some sort of a big thing. Maybe this will be another one of those gazillion volume ones, which could work, but I don't feel there is too much going on right now. It's still fun, sure, just not really that much.

Another thing I loved about the first two books was how Angel wasn't this super amazingly perfect little thing who is just undeniably superior to everyone else. That's boring. Angel is Angel, she isn't super smart, she isn't super perfect. She has problems and weaknesses. Not morally superior to everyone else. Some people love her, some don't.
But now it's basically an Angel lovefest. There are a few categories. Young men who are hot are in love with her. Or if they are taken or too old or too ugly or women they simply think she is the best person ever. Or they are evil. There is nothing else, at this point she is offered to work in part time at a hyper laboratory when she has zero qualifications or even just self-taught knowledge. Why? Because she is just naturally so cool and everyone absolutely adores her. People would jump into freaking Mount Doom for Angel.

It's still easy to read and entertaining, I just wish the series would go a step further and tone down this “the protagonist is the most wonderful and adored person ever born”. This shouldn't be one of those things. There are enough series where it's like that and I already dislike them enough without that stupid cliche fucking up an otherwise perfectly fine series with a female protagonist who isn't an annoying twat.

I'm going to read the next in the series, I just hope for it changing direction.

Have a nice day and get a room, kids!
