Review:

I received Rock ´n’ Roll is Undead in exchange of an honest review and I have to say it was nice getting to read about a world where humans are well aware of the existence of paranormal creatures and actually live side by side with them.
Veronica Mason is a lead singer of her Rockabilly band – The Voodoo Zombies.
Veronica’s also a witch and the other members of her band are vampires! They all get along moderately well even though their kinds should be enemies. When one of her band members is staked and dies Veronica is forced to find a new bass player. Buzz auditions for the place and gets it and Veronica is definitely interested in more than just his musical abilities.
Rock ´n´ Roll is Undead is definitely not your typical paranormal story. There’s a good twist to it and all the characters, especially Veronica who’s a witch who can’t perform spells, are very funny. Some of the characters can be a bit creepy sometimes as well. I think the characters and their relationships with each other could have been a little more developed, though.
The whole book is fast paced and there’s a very good mystery you’ll want to figure out. I think the end of the book might surprise you. It took me a while to figure out who the killer was but I eventually did.
All in all Rock ´n´ Roll is Undead is an interesting paranormal romance story with a good mystery in it. It is fast paced and I think it will be able to keep paranormal fans entertained.
