Undead and Un-sucky

Some of my friends have given me funny looks when I happily told them that I'm currently collecting a chick lit series (Come to think of it, I get funnier looks when they find out that I've read two Paulo Coehlo books). Well, when under stress, I usually look for light and slightly brainless things to entertain me.

Chibi-chan () recommended the book, Undead and Unwed by MaryJanice Davidson. During the last big book fair, I bought the second book in the series, Undead and Underappreciated to try out the entire chick lit thing.

I wasn't disappointed.

It's laugh out loud fun. Who wouldn't laugh at words like such:

BabyJon blatted and I felt his diaper get warmer. And heavier. No! Hull integrity would not hold! She's losing it, Captain, she's losing it!

My roomies think that I swallowed two bottles of Prozac when they observe me reading Undead.

I currently have four books in the series, and though the series has some obvious flaws (it's not very consistent with facts, events, and character behavior), I'm still going to buy the next books in the series. It's all about a girl who gets hit by a Pontiac Aztec, dies, wakes up in a morgue, and discovers that she's a vampire. Pretty sucky if you ask me. But come to think about it, what would be suckier? Dying or un-dying?
