It is a unique story line and it was a fast paced read. I really enjoyed the story behind this book and the potential that it can hold for future books. Chiles, and want to know how she fits into everything. Which is a lot with all the information that gets dumped on her.Īfter the way Undeadly ended, I'm anxious to read the sequel. You get to see the level of 'Freaked Out' that she is at. Every once in a while we get a peek at her thoughts through her journal. The book is written in Molly's point of view.

She's to the point and doesn't play games. I want to hear more from Ally, Molly's sister. I think Molly's friends at Nekyia are pretty awesome. A lot of out of the ordinary things happen there, so I don't think there is a better place for Molly to have grown up.

That is a quality I like in some of my main characters. I've seen Greek and Roman mythology in YA, but not Egyptian. I loved the Egyptian Mythology that was brought into the story. Undeadly reminded me of The Mythos Academy Series. I love books that are light and fun when dealing with dark topics, such as being a Reaper. But make sure to read the excerpt first before buying, because the style of narration will probably irritate some readers.Disclaimer: I was given a free eBook by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. And Undeadly certainly had that.With HUUUGE cliffhanger ending, Michele Vail definitely has me on the edge of my seat eagerly awaiting October 29th 2013 and sequel Unchosen to be published.IN THE END.If you like young adult paranormal novels and Egyptian mythology, then Undeadly might be the book you are looking for. It's one of my weak spots and it's so rare to find a good book that features Egyptian gods in contemporary setting and with an interesting back-story. The atmosphere had Hogwarts feel although with private room and personal servant you can't say Molly is just one of the crowd like Harry Potter.Another thing that tipped the scales and made me enjoy Undeadly was huge amount of Egyptian mythology used. And I especially loved Nekyia Academy, private academy, which Molly ends up attending. In an alternate version of Earth where necromancy is not just in fiction, we follow Molly as she struggles with her gift and tries to accept it. But although at first she was immensely annoying, Molly and her attitude grew on me and the urge to strangle her or yell at her that she is too stupid to live lessened as the world Michele Vail invented pulled me in.One of the things that I liked is a setting. She used phrases 'like', 'suckitude', 'crap' and other words that authors use to badly imitate teenage lingo. Undeadly is one of those books that when you look back in retrospective makes you wonder: why the hell did I like it? Especially since just a glance at the first sentence reminds me how horrible first person point-of-view narration by Molly was.
