Yes for the record I am reading other books, it's just these are quicker and easier and I kinda want to just be done with them and move on. ( )

These books just kinda makes me feel better when I read them. It's nothing particularly brilliant, it's more the fact that you don't have to think much when you're reding these books so there are an excellent way to relax. Also they are very quick to read which is good because I can't but them down whenever I start a new one. The only negative side in this book is the fact that it continues on from a book that is part of another series so if you haven't (like me) read the other series you're kind of lost at the beginning of this book. ( )

As always, Nancy Wu's narration makes listening to MaryJanice Davidson's already funny Undead/Queen Betsy' even more enjoyable, Undead and Unpopular is the fifth book. This is the one where Betsy is eventually sorry that she ignored warnings about a zombie being in the attic. There's also the problem of a snooty bunch of European vampires making a belated visit to meet their new queen and king. A forgotten incident in one vampire's past turned out to have more importance to a vampire Betsy calls her friend. A secret best friend Jessica has been keeping is revealed, and I don't mean whether or not a surprise party has been arranged for Betsy's 31st birthday.

The handsome young former Blade Warrior who has a crush on Betsy makes an appearance, as does Marjorie the vampire librarian. Betsy's half-sister, Laura Goodman the Anti-Christ, has a less deadly role this time.

It's good to reread these books after reading further in the series. One gets to pick up on clues that will be important to running subplots. Events that are worrisome in this book will already to be known to be worth worrying or not. ( )

Not my favorite one, I could put it down, the first three books I could not stop reading. ( )

This one has Betsy's birthday coming up and she doesn't want a surprise party. That is pretty much the start and end to this book. There's a delegation of European vampires that come to visit and we learn that one of Betsy's pals was actually turned into a vampire by one of them which is one of the big plot points in this book. There's also a zombie in the attic which comes up repeatedly but is really not a major plot point. ( )
