I would be horrified if I went to the book store and saw this section too… Oh wait, I WAS HORRIFIED! Because this is a real genre now.
Women of all ages is seems love the idea of dating vampires, werewolves, what have you. But I feel the zombie is highly underrepresented in the “Teen Paranormal Romance” genre.
That seems wrong to me, as zombies have a lot of good qualities in a boyfriend.
- They love you for your Mind and Body.
- They are not easily distracted and will sit there moaning for hours as you talk about your day and various girls you don’t like.
- Zombie are not into sports nearly to the level of your average guy, they will drink all your beer though.
- Zombies will NOT try to sleep with your sister. Little known fact, Zombies are very loyal.
- The most important reason for a zombie boyfriend though. One quality that he has far above other gothic monsters…. Stamina. (And don’t you dare lie, ladies, and tell me that’s not important)
Zombies simply never ever give up. (Now if I can get this zombie webcomic in that section I’ll be happy.)
noooooooooooooooo theres only to thing i hate zombie and teenage girl love books ewwww
OK.
1) Whats with the clerks bulletwound to the head?
2)I love our dear Bucket Zombie (I’m sure that there is a merch opportunity with that name on it)’s expersion of utmost fear.
3) Mushrooms are awesome. They can be eaten any meal of the day and are delicious. Just wanted to put that out there.
I forgot what 4 was.
Anyway what truly gets on my tits (should I at any point grow a pair) is the fact of how over-romanticist the specific undead have become. I would not hate Twilight half as much if the bastards did not sparkle. The only vampire who should glitter in the light should be a gangster rapper one covered in bling.
And Carter I think chicks are put off by the fact that when having sex with the dead they have to worry about more than him just leaving a small portion of himself within her. NOT charming at all. Plus that leads to a whole new world of sexual disorders.
Oh yeah 4) Bucket Zombie could be a giant cocktail made from rum, grapefruit,rum,lime,rum and more rum.
I know I’m a bit late, but, what the hell. The bullet wound is from one of the first comics, the shopkeep was shot in the head and came back.
Very few people ever notice that I did that. It would seem my zombies are more durable than your average zombie.
I don’t know of any teen zombie romance novels but there are some in the regular paranormal romance. I have one called My Zombie Valentine. It has 4 short stories that are actually pretty funny. There was one other one there when I bought that one but I can’t remember the title.
Zombie Matt, that’s why I refuse to let my daughter learn to read. Therefore she’ll never want these evil books.
Zombologist, good eye. Earlier that’s the same zombie that took a shot to the head. He seams to be doing okay now though. I don’t follow the “Romero Rules” for the comic it seams.
I think the main thing that puts women off wanting a zombie for a boyfriend is the smell, then the rotting, then the relentless hunger for flesh.
That’s a lot to overcome in a relationship.
I’ll have to check out “My Zombie Valentine” haven’t heard of that one.
@Zombologist- The only other reason that a vampire should sparkle besides wearing bling is because it just had glitter dumped on it.
Carter, don’t forget that the fact that you never know when your zombie boy/girlfriend could have a limb come off is another turn-off.
I was at a bookstore today and saw a collection of zombie love songs.
Fijiman, I’ve met people who wouldn’t be put off by that… I was terrified of them.
Cross Stitch, I must possess that! Where and what is the title?
I meant that it would be a turn-off for people who are not zombies or the the bad kind of crazy people.
But…. but… I used to be married to “The bad kind of crazy people”
I have scars to prove it. 🙂
It’s called “Every Zombie Eats Somebody Sometime: A Book of Zombie Love Songs” you can find it on Amazon.
Done and done. Thanks!
All I have to offer to this is a simple song by our friend Voltair
I love that guy. 🙂
