review 1: How much fun does this sound?! I want to thank Molly over at Reviews By Molly for introducing this to me!! Once she told me about it, I had to rush over to Amazon and grab myself a copy. My copy came today, thanks to my lovely UPS man and let me tell you - it is delish, laugh-out-loud humorous and just tons of fun! The endless drool-worthy pictures are awesome - remember back in the day when you used to grab those pop and movie mags, drool over the pics of the hot guys and hang them up on the wall? Well, Dating the Undead is like that, but only for grown-ups, lol. Other than the pictures, there are tons of parody advertisements geared toward the day-to-day lifestyle of the Undead (Coffin Klein, anyone?), quizzes, advice, a look into what the undead look for in a mate (... moreor victim) and so much more! Think Cosmo for the undead! As extra added fun there is an exclusive excerpt from The Darkest Seduction by Ms. Showalter herself.I have to say that these two girls have produced a very unique, addicting and amazingly fun idea with the paranormal magazine parody! This is a definite not-to-be-missed publication for paranormal lovers everywhere! I am not sure if they are going to release another edition, but I would be first in line to pick up a new copy!!
review 2: Reviewed By~JenReview Copy provided By~ Planned Television ArtsIf y'all have been reading my reviews, you know that I rarely award a book 5 stars. But I loved this "book" from cover to cover. Gena Showalter and Jill Monroe have created a masterpiece with their magazine stylized book devoted to the world of Dating the Undead.After checking out the cover, I turned to page one and was rewarded with an ad for Coffin Klein and I knew I was in for quite a ride. All the ads had me rolling. I mean, who came up with mythmatch.com, GoDieVa or Jimmy Chew? It's pure genius.On to the articles... they covered everything you'd find in a regular magazine but with an awesome twist. There were recipes, an advice column, fashion stories and so on. The authors equally tackle advice on how to date vampires, werewolves, dragons, zombies, angels and demons. And to top it off, the photos are awesome. Hot guys abound.Included in this magazine is a sneak peak at Gena Showalter's upcoming release, The Darkest Seduction (*squee*), and a wonderful photo album of her Lords of the Underworld. I'll admit that I hadn't pictured the Lords like this, but I will from now on.This really is a must read for paranormal fans. And I dare you to not crack a smile at least once as you read. Now excuse me while I go re-take that quiz on whether or not I have what it takes to date an immortal. less
