Again, I lied again! My review was a long time coming - and it's not going to be much of a review.
I was all excited to love Bad Taste in Boys after reading the author's hilarious blog, however, I didn't find this book nearly has amusing. It was humorous in a campy sort of way - like it was meant to be a silly 80s movie, or even an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (which, admittedly, I love). It's about a zombie infection that sweeps through a high school and it's up to science-girl protagonist to save the day. It's ok, but I feel like it needed either need more humor, or more seriousness. I wasn't sure sometimes if I was supposed to be laughing or be horrified. This book is short - less than 100 pages, which seemed too short to me - I want there to be more to the story!
