Publisher's Summary:
When zombies are entranced by a wicked wizard, nothing will ever be the same.
When a courageous human girl named Alex who always does the right thing wakes up, things have certainly changed. Her little town has been pillaged, and when she looks in the mirror, she is shocked to realize that she is now a zombie! To her chagrin, the only other survivor is Steve, her arrogant yet kind hearted new partner in crime.
Alex and Steve have to get to the bottom of what happened - and quick. Things seem to be getting weirder and weirder. Bravely maneuvering their way through entranced zombies, giant spiders, and other creepy creatures, Alex and Steve finally come upon the house of a kindly witch - whose brother happened to have enslaved the zombies that are wreaking havoc. Before they part ways with the witch, she reveals to Alex it is possible for them to become human again. Petulant Steve is more concerned about getting revenge on the wizard for causing such destruction.
What will Alex do? Listen to The Witch to see if she chooses to restore her humanity, or fight for the rest of it.
Vivacious and spirited, this book will have any child on the edge of their seat - even the most stubborn non-listener you know!

This is by far my favorite book that I've read from M
This is by far my favorite book that I've read from M.C. Steve! It was relatable from the very first line where Alex has a killer headache (I've had migraines for years), all the way to the end where she (I also really liked that this story features a girl, though with a name like Alex I didn't immediately realize that) departs from Steve, with whom she has a sibling-like relationship.
This one was also funnier than the other ones I've read. My favorite line? "What kind of monster tries to hurt a girl's feet? A really short one, maybe" (It's from the Day 4 chapter). The author probably didn't intend it this way, but I think it makes a great joke, which I used to make my family (and myself, of course) laugh.
I also want to say that the conclusion was good - I was a little disappointed with the last book I read from M.C. Steve because it suddenly ended right as I was really getting into it, but this one has the classic wind-down with a setup for another book, so I'm happy with it.
The one thing I would suggest be changed is how often Alex says that she'll write tomorrow. She said that at the end of nearly every chapter, if not every chapter, and considering how short most of the chapters are, it was a little too much. Doesn't take away from the story, though, so it's not a huge issue.
Grandson says "AWESOME" and that's a good thing!
This reminds me a little bit of the "wimpy kid" series - These are written from the Zombie's point of view. I waited to write this until my grandson (age 10) visited last weekend so he could read the book and tell me what he thought. What better review than "It's AWESOME".
10 is a hard age for gifts right? To old for most "toys" and too young for "teenage stuff".... THIS IS PERFECT.
