"Y'know, if I was a sexy type of undead, like a vampire or something, I'm sure I'd have some kind of supernatural power to bring any guy I liked under my charismatic control. Best I can hope for is to decompose over someone's shoes. How romantic."
"This is a unique new twist to zombie books and the first one I can recall where the lead character, as a zombie, command attention as a real person... It is a courageous and trend-setting book" - Don Sloan
"This book was so much fun!" - Susanna Hays
And you thought it was hard when you told your family you were gay... Jay was a perfectly normal teenager. Awkward, antisocial, gay. He had friends, but only a few. His family were troubled, and he wasn't entirely happy. He was like any other awkward, antisocial, gay teenager. Until he was bitten.
Now, Jay has far more on his mind than he can handle. Not only is he struggling to keep his family apart and deal with his unfulfilled love for the hottest guy in school, but he now has to struggle to keep in check his urge to devour human flesh. Decomposition is bad enough, but he can almost deal with that. But how can he deal with life when he's this much of an outsider?
