Her parents have dragged her across the country, and she has to start over in a new school. This is a big problem, because she doesn't make friends easily: she's large, she's loud, and she doesn't suffer fools gladly. Within days, Stella has alienated half the school. Only one person seems to like her: Howard Mullins, the shy geek in her Chemistry class. He's the biggest loser in school, but he's a great listener, he's smart at science, and he loves her for her mind. Then again, he drinks brains from a thermos and walks with a lurch. Now undead hordes are showing up at her door, and Howard Mullins might be to blame. Can Stella manage the bullies, figure out her complicated love life, and handle a chainsaw? Chemistry is an uproarious zombie romantic comedy with a surprising amount of heart, intended for older teen and new adult readers. If you like Warm Bodies, Shaun of the Dead and stories with strong heroines, you'll adore this girl-powered, irreverent twist on Twilight from C.L. Lynch, who thinks zombies and big girls deserve love, too. Pick up a copy of Chemistry today, and get ready to fall in love with this laugh-out-loud page-turner. less
