About this listen

Book 3 in the Russel Middlebrook Series, Winner of the Lambda Book Award!

It's a horror-movie extravaganza in this, the second sequel to Brent Hartinger's Geography Club. Two complete books in one recount the stories of best friends Russel and Min who sign up to be extras on the set of a zombie film and learn that there's nothing scarier than high school romance.

In the first audiobook, Attack of the Soul-Sucking Brain Zombies, Russel must choose between his long-distance boyfriend and a close-to-home ex named Kevin who wants to get back together. In the second audiobook, Bride of the Soul-Sucking Brain Zombies, Min struggles to accept her cheerleader girlfriend's decision to stay in the closet. But beware! Russel and Min's separate stories affect each other in surprising ways, and you'll have to listen to both audiobooks together to find out the whole story.

Russel, Min and Gunnar get roles as zombie extras in a small budget horror film being shot in a local high school. Russel is surprised to find that Kevin has also volunteered and even though Russel is going out with Otto, he finds some of his feelings for Kevin have risen from the dead. Meanwhile, Min meets Leah, a cute zombie cheerleader who is not out, and Min find herself struggling to compromise. The previous books have been from Russel’s POV but this book is divide in two with Russel narrating the first half and Min narrating the second half. While it was great to get Min’s take on things and there are major subplots and revelations that only appear in her story, the amount of overlap made Min’s story feel a bit repetitious. Usually an author would swap POV’s each chapter to minimise that feeling. I can see why it was done this way, but I think that works better in film than in books. Josh Hurley and Vanessa Johansson both narrated their books sections well but again, I was being asked to change aural gears half way through a novel and that took me a while to adjust.

Great story but 2-books-in-1 format wasn’t my fave
