Girls Save The World In This One by Ash Parsons

Three zombie obsessed best friends find themselves in the middle of a real life outbreak at their long awaited zombie-com.


June, Imani and Siggy are loyal followers of Human Wasteland, a Walking Dead esque series about humans during a zombie outbreak. When Zombiecon, a huge con celebrating all things zombie, arrives in their small town, they're desperate to go. But amongst the panels and autograph opportunities, there are a few strange moments...

What a fantastic book. Funny, serious in the right spots, stakes high enough for it to mean something - (read, people actually die) - a romance that honestly I could take or leave; he was nice and sweet but was it really the time? and girls figuring things out and making a go of it themselves! I'd love to see a sequel, since the girls were obviously exposed to whatever caused this. Also, how handy that this happened at a zombie convention where everyone present knew enough about zombies to fight back!

I really enjoyed this read. It's funny, cute and great escapism. I recommend it very highly.


June’s whole life has been leading up to this: ZombieCon, the fan convention celebrating all things zombies. She and her two best friends plan on hitting all the panels, photo ops, and meeting the heartthrob lead of their favorite zombie apocalypse show Human Wasteland.

And when they arrive everything seems perfect, though June has to shrug off some weirdness from other fans—people shambling a little too much, and someone actually biting a cast member. Then all hell breaks loose and June and her friends discover the truth: real zombies are taking over the con. Now June must do whatever it takes to survive a horde of actual brain-eating zombies—and save the world.
