ReviewsPraise for the Dead Is series "[Perez] delivers a wise-cracking, boy-lusting, determined sleuth of a high school protagonist . . . this quick, lighter-than-air spoof of the undead, cheerleaders and popularity is pure pleasure."-- Publishers Weekly "A fun ride from start to finish. Perez's smart and sassy style soars."--Mary E. Pearson, author of the Jenna Fox Chronicles "[A] quick, lively romp. . . . Teens looking for a breezy read will find plenty to like here."-- Booklist "This super supernatural murder mystery is sassy, romantic, and spooky-fun!"--Cynthia Leitich Smith, author of Tantalize "Light romance and a paranormal plot are more tongue-in-cheek than scary, making this series a good introduction to the genre for younger readers."-- Booklist "Breezy style and comic-book plot. . . . Fun."-- Kirkus, "Hot on the heels of Dead Is the New Black (2008) comes another quick, lively romp through Nightshade USA, where a variety of preternaturals, paranormals, and regular folks coexist in continually tenuous accord. Caught somewhere between them all is Daisy Giordano, equal parts psychic, amateur detective, and teenage girl. Romance and murder are again high on Daisy's list of priorities. New boyfriend Ryan is acting truly bizarre. Is he in love with her, or isn't he? Will he ask her to the prom? Then there's the strange death of a local high-school teacher. Did a werewolf do the deed? Add to that two new classmates: hottie Elise Wilder, who seems to have her eye on Ryan, and handsome fortune-teller Duke Sherrad, who wants Daisy for himself.
