Zombie Queen of Newbury High, by Amanda Ashby

Mia—the Supernatural-watching, Buffy-loving BFF of your dreams—is finally living out her nerd girl dreams when the super-hot football captain asks her to prom. But when the evil cheerleading goddess tries to make some moves on Mia’s new man, Mia attempts a love potion that accidentally unleashes a zombie virus instead. Her new zombie horde treats her like a queen, and everything looks like it might be okay, until an ultra-handsome zombie hunter informs her the zombies are just fattening her up. This funny look at the zombie apocalypse will charm your paranormal socks off.
