Let me start with saying that I don’t know where to start with this review. Yea, that good! Ok, so I guess I will start by saying I came across this book on amazon on the top free list. It had a cute cartoon cover and thought I will at some point read it….well, let me tell you, I am so happy I started in almost immediately.  I loved it.I moved away from Paranormal Romance a while ago.  Not that I don’t like them I just prefer the stories that make me say in my head “please happen to me someday”. Not only did this book blow every paranormal romance out of the water, it was the first book in months that kept me up into the wee hours of the morning. That means it had to be something amazing considering nothing usually gets in the way of my sleep time considering I have three little boys that keep me B-U-S-Y.So now, about the book. Astrid (never thought I would love this name) is a 29 year old normal Kentucky girl with an obsessed with Prada.  I loved her. She instantly from page 1 was someone I totally knew I would love. She wasn’t one of those wimpy, take crap from everyone, push over that most books make us girls….come on, some of us are some seriously kick ass women. She grew up with a mother that was a total B**** (notice the capital b), a daddy she knew nothing about and a serious case of commitment phobia thanks to her mommy issue. At least she had her awesome Nana….until she just recently passed.Knowing that her Nana would want her to do something with her life, she decided to change herself for the better….quit smoking was on the top of the list. Who knew that would change her world COMPLETELY. Waking up a Vampyre was not on her list of things to do when she had that thought.Astrid is immediately thrown into a world of vampyres, demons, angels and fairies. Holy crap, I loved this book.A foul mouthed angel who looks identical to Oprah, a Fairy who is the definite doppelganger to the Terminator and has the worst fashion sense in the universe take Astrid under their wings (no pun intended).There are rogue vampyres on the loose, a drop dead gorgeous Prince (again, no pun intended, it just keeps happening) who is completely convinced Astrid is his, an attraction to another gorgeous Vamp and tiny demon babies on her ceiling, this girl is in for a crazy ride. This story has SO many twists and turns. It was so awesome how every detail in this book ties together and as you read you find yourself saying “omg, what, seriously? AWESOME!” really I said that about a million times.Every character in this part has a certain importance. While Astrid is definitely the main character in this story, the side characters end up have multiple reasons for being there and OMG my mind is starting to get all hyper thinking about how awesome this author is. I have never read anything that has so many different stories in one that all turn into the same thing…SEE, hyper brain is happening.This book is absolutely hilarious. The things that come out of Astrid mouth are so freaking funny. The banter between characters, the little things like the game Clue. Ah, hilarious.  This is also one seriously hot book. There were a few parts where I considered walking outside my house and straight into my freezing cold lake…that hot.I am super excited that there is also a book 2 in the series. Fashionably Dead Down Under. The author was amazing and gave me the book as a gift and it will definitely be read right when I am down with this review. A-MAZING!! 5++ STARS!!!Highly recommend this book to every single being in the universe (yes, I meant that to be strange) I don’t care what kind books you like to read…READ THIS. Right now it is free so NO EXCUSES!!!!
