Sharon wakes up in a coffin. It seems she was killed whilst catching the bouquet at a friend's wedding. But what's an undead redhead supposed to do?

This was an enjoyable light read.

A vegan zombie, what a cool idea! I have read quite a few zombie books, so I know how hard it is to find a good one. I was in the mood for a good zombie book, so started this one. Let me tell you from the start, I enjoyed it immensely and chuckled all the way through.

This is the story of Sharon Backovic, a redhead gal who has died in a freak accident and comes back to life in mysterious circumstances. The undead Redhead isn't your run-of-the-mill zombie either. She is a vegan, thank you very much, so no brains for this gal! She soon finds out that being a zombie is the easiest part of her new life, zombies have a bad image, and being undead has its own rewards. Our Undead Redhead tries to adjust to her new life and stay optimistic no matter what hurdles life, or death to that matter, throws her way.

I loved the incredibly fresh take on the zombie tale. The story could use a bit of polish, there were too many side stories, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The story was engaging, the characters believable, and the steady pace of the plot kept me turning the pages. One can't but love the Undead Redhead and root for her. The book is dripping with humour, and puns, and was a very enjoyable read. If you like a story about emotion and character growth and some good overall fun, this is the book for you!
