As a big fan of Mary Janice Davidson and the Betsy series I was excited to read this book. UNDEAD AND UNDERMINED is book two of a trilogy that is within the whole series. In this book we find Betsy still trying to figure herself out as well as getting used to the changes from time traveling with her sister. So many things have changed, some good and some bad, but Betsy must find a way to come to terms with it all. Only Betsy and her sister remember what things were like before, and we see how they react and live with the changes.
While this book my not be as laugh-out-loud funny as some of the other books in this story I still enjoyed it. I like that we get to see Betsy growing and becoming her own person. There is so much going on in this book. So much is different, from people coming back to life to others being pregnant and in love. I do not know where to start without giving out spoilers as to all that has changed. I will say that I still love Betsy and her sarcasm yet I am enjoying her journey and the changes happening in her. She still has her obsession with shoes but she is growing and I hope she continues to do so.
The author still keeps the romance and friendships alive in this book, keeping the foundations of the story alive and well. I loved the depth of these relationships and hope that Betsy will find a way to get the life that she wants. I was stunned at what happened in the end and hope that Betsy will keep her word on the declaration she made to Sinclair at the end of the book. I cannot wait for the next Betsy book to come out so we can see what happens and if she can find her happy ever after.
Betsyβs next undead adventure takes her deep into the depths
of a Chicago morgue.
Ever wonder what itβs like to wake up
cold and naked on an embalming table? Betsy can tell you!
Waking up in a morgue is bad enough, but having to interrupt
the coroner (βyou canβt have my brain,β) is her cue to
leave. Having nearly scared the undertaker to his own death,
Betsy hits the pavement and heads back to her St. Paul
mansion to find her friends and family desperately searching
for her. The last thing Betsy remembers is reconciling with
her husband, Eric, after time-traveling with her sister.
Their travel even included a side trip to hell, literally.
But the question still remains, how did she wind up naked,
dead and in a Chicago morgue? Betsy soon realizes that she
and her sister, Laura didnβt time travel alone. An evil
force, The Marc Thing, followed them back in time with the
intent to kill Betsy when she was young, ending her future
reign as queen.
But itβs not just Betsyβs future that is at
stake; everyone in her circle of friends, undead or alive,
could be in danger. And it will be a cold day in hell,
literally, before she lets the unthinkable happen.
