Girls Save the World in This One by Ash Parsons

Okay, imagine you're going to a con where the cast of your favorite zombie-ridden post-apocalyptic show is appearing. You've hit the exhibit hall, taken pictures with the cosplayers, and are just sitting down to a panel with the whole cast... and the zombie apocalypse happens. For reals. That's how it goes down for teens June, Siggy, and Imani, attending ZombieCon! in their little hometown. They're sitting in on a panel with all the stars of their favorite zombie show, Human Wasteland, when all hell breaks loose. The girls have to put their zombie apocalypse skills to the test to survive, and June has to cope with the indignity of having her ex-BFF, Blair, who's also at the con and on the run from the undead. DRAMA.
Girls Save the World in This One is FANTASTIC. I loved every single page of this hilarious action-adventure story, with relatable teens who are sick and tired of friendship drama, dumb boyfriends, and all of these freaking zombies! June, Imani, and Siggy are quick-thinking, smart, and their friendship bond is #squadgoals. June, in fabulous teen fashion, takes time to agonize over her damaged friendship with Blair while figuring out how to escape zombies and put up with obnoxious cable TV celebrities, and Blair - the friend on the outside looking in - is proof that desperate times can bring people closer. Fans of the other zombie show on cable TV will recognize some characters, and I love the fangirl's dream come true that evolves throughout the book. Who will survive? You MUST read this to find out. Strong female characters, the power of friendship, and a burgeoning romance amidst the zombie apocalypse make this a must have.
