"Dead is Not an Option" by Marlene Perez


"Dead is Not an Option" by Marlene Perez


Description:
It’s springtime of senior year, and psychic sleuth Daisy Giordano is preparing to say goodbye to Nightshade High. But no college acceptance letters have arrived yet, and she’s beginning to worry about where she’ll end up come fall—and if it will be anywhere near her boyfriend, Ryan. But that’s not the only uncertainty Daisy’s dealing with. There’s a vamps-versus-shifters war going on in Nightshade, and things are so tense that there is talk of canceling the prom. The conflict is carrying over to the Giordano home, since Rose and Daisy are both dating werewolves and Poppy’s new boyfriend is a vampire.

Can the paranormal community in Nightshade finally find peace? And will Daisy and her friends survive graduation? All of these questions and more are answered in the explosive final installment in the Dead Is series.


My thoughts...
The fifth book from the series, "Dead is..." is a very promising read, but for me it just wasn't that exciting. I am not sure if its because its too slow, or I haven't read the other books in the series - but I only read about three chapters and found myself bored. For those of you who like sci-fi, fantasy, youth/teen, vampire/werewolf books (similar to the Twilight series) - then check this book out! Due to the time limit that I signed up for this book to review, I am thinking I did not give myself enough time to really read this great book. I would love to try to read this book or the other books in the series sometime in the future.
