Girls Save the World in This One – Ash Parsons
A cross between The Walking Dead, Zombieland and Fangirl, Girls Save the World in This One is a story of four friends determined to make memories at ZombieCon, a fan convention celebrating all things zombie, as well as their favorite TV show, Human Wasteland.
What could go wrong, right? If you have to ask, the answer is everything.
When some of the zombies shambling around the con turn out to be something more than cosplayers, June and her BFFs Imani and Siggy must use their extensive zombie knowledge to help guide a ragtag group of survivors to safety.
The official synopsis sounds like a fun, fannish romp.
"June’s whole life has been leading up to this: ZombieCon, the fan convention celebrating all things zombies. She and her two best friends plan on hitting all the panels, photo ops, and meeting the heartthrob lead of their favorite zombie apocalypse show Human Wasteland. And when they arrive everything seems perfect, though June has to shrug off some weirdness from other fans—people shambling a little too much, and someone actually biting a cast member. Then all hell breaks loose and June and her friends discover the truth: real zombies are taking over the con. Now June must do whatever it takes to survive a horde of actual brain-eating zombies—and save the world."
Girls Save the World in This One is available on April 14.
