All you can do is open your heart and trust the one you love will be there for you. It could be your mom, your dad, your friend…or maybe a person only you can see.
Amy Love, a high school junior, plays a Ouija board with friends one night and unintentionally connects with someone whose, well, not visible to the naked eye. When her body’s taken over and her soul is stuck watching helplessly—she’s terrified. When the zombie guzzles bologna that she will have to work off at the gym—she’s angry. And, when her zombied body pulls up a news article on her laptop about a boy named Jonathan Miller who was recently in a car crash—she’s . . . intrigued.
When the zombie chooses another host, Amy learns that the zombie is actually teen Jonathan Miller, son of the famous Maisy's Meow comic creator Jacob Miller. Jonathan tells Amy he doesn’t know whether he’s dead or alive, only that when he’s not in a body, she is the only one who seems to know he exists.
Amy decides to help Jonathan discover what happened to him and, when they can’t find his body, they try to find a substitute—preferably one that isn’t occupied. On the journey, Jonathan leads Amy into all kinds of danger. To her surprise, he also leads her heart to somewhere unexpected. She’s always heard of love at first sight, not love at first fright, but how can Amy be falling for a boy she’s never even seen?
See See Me (Zombie Love #1) by Susan Hatler in:
ARC received via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review but it didn’t affect my opinion about this book.
When we hear the word “zombie”, the first thing that comes to our mind is a dead, decaying body that came to life that is often associated with witchcraft or some hocus-pocus. Believed to eat human brains or flesh as their sustenance, not a lot of people are fond of reading stories where the heroine’s love interest is a zombie.
After I read the blurb, I was curious because I never read a paranormal romance novel that involved zombies.
That said, this book wasn’t really all about zombies.
This book was the kind you finish in one sitting because of how fast the story’s pace is. The writing was mediocre. But considering that it was written in the point of view of an ordinary sixteen-year old girl, I thought it was apropos. You couldn’t surely expect her to be all lyrical like Bella from Twilight.
There were parts I found ridiculous but as long as you adapt the ‘it’s only fiction’ mindset (which I did), this book was actually fun to read.
