Where to Find Me

OH MY GOSH!!!


Ok, so I know I haven't posted in a while, but I was in the middle of finishing a series that I absolutely LOVE!!! I crammed like 4 books in a week to get caught up hahahaha.
What series did I finish? The Undead series from Mary Janice Davidson.
The first book, Undead and Unwed is about a woman named Elizabeth (Betsy) Taylor. It starts off talking about her last day alive on her 30th birthday. How she got laid off, and hit by a car and died. The part that will always stick with me? When she wakes up at the funeral home on the day of her funeral. She's pissed about what her step-mother put her in lol. She goes home and finds her house is packed up and all of her designer clothes AND SHOES are gone. She knows exactly where they are. LOL. She goes to her dad's/step-mother's house, just walks in, shows her family she is very much alive (kind of), and gets her clothes and shoes using her step-mothers gown as a bag hahahaha. Her best friend Jessica thinks it is so awesome her friend is a vampire.
She later finds out she is the new queen of vampires, and she has all these powers that other vampires don't have. Like, she can walk in sunlight but won't get burned, she can stand holy water (but it makes her sneeze), and hardly anything can kill her (except decapitation).
Later down the line (about 4 or 5 books into it), she finds out she has a half-sister who is 20 years old who is the spawn of satan. literally. What happened? Well, aparently the dark king (or queen?) possessed her step-mother's body (she was already mean and evil so no one really noticed the difference in personality), and got pregnant by her father, the step-mother "woke up" after she had the baby and dropped it off at the hospital. Hahahaha, and get this, the spawn of satan was adopted by a christian family (the father was a minister). So her sister grew up in a good home, and always did good, going to church, teaching a bible study, volunteering at a shelter or something. And why does she do this since her "mother" is satan? She's rebelling. She doesn't want to be evil at all. But you piss her off, her hair goes all deep red, and her eyes change to a green and she can produce a hellfire sword out of thin air (a sweet-sixteen birthday present from her parent from down under).
And the prophecy says that her half-sister will rule the world. And Betsy won't let it happen by pretty much reminding her sister that she is good, and she won't go against God (she doesn't even use profanity hahahaha).
I like reading the paperback so I have to wait until April 26th for that edition to come out BOOOOO!!!
So, a message to Mary Janice Davidson: Girl, keep up the good work, I hate how you leave me hanging like this hahahaha.
So what I already put down as info on this series, it isn't HALF of it, you want to know more? Read the series . . .
