3.5

The ZomBert Chronicles are just the right blend of mystery and slightly  spooky for animal lovers! Told in parallel perspective. The three books in the series feel almost more like one longer book chopped into three slim stories; each book ends rather abruptly on a cliffhanger, and there's no time lapse in between. The main character Mellie is presumably illustrated as biracial (mom and Mellie have dark skin, dad and her twin siblings have light skin) but no reference is ever made to ethnicity or culture.
