Nice Girls Don’t Date Dead Men (Jane Jameson #2)

I’m kinda disappointed with this series. I have read her other series and love them but this one is just to irrational to be good. Jane is just pathetic in so many ways. Her family is beyond cruel and she just takes it. How many mothers would tolerate someone who tried to kill thier daughter? To the point of insisting she be nice to him. And all of them just stand by and watch as he attacks her? It’s just stupid and pointless now. I’m invested in this series but will most likely borrow the last book and skip to the last chapter just to see how it ends. Jane is just to pathetic and it has ruined this series for me. I dont know if I will continue it or not. I keep hoping Jabpne will come into her own and grow a spine but I dont see it happening.

This series is ok, but I get so annoyed with how she just lets her family do crap to her it gets on my nerves that I have to yell why are you so stupid and the relationship with her and gabriel is so slow and I feel no spark or anything half the time you have to wonder if they are even in a relationship. I can’t understand half the time what the author wants us to get for this book I don’t find it that funny I don’t feel the romance to me this is just a book I read inbetween my favorite authors but I’m in no hurry to rush to buy another book in this series

Jane Jameson has only been a vampire for a few months. Shes still having problems with her family, her best friend Zeb is getting married to a werewolf and shes asked to be the Best Maid. Of course nothing goes smoothly through the engagement, but we do learn about the werewolf culture. And Janes relationship with her sire, Gabriel, is confusing to her as he knows that shes aware hes keeping things from her. She should just trust him.

Dysfunctional and quirky characters and their actions are what really make this a fun story. The lengths some people will go thru to get what they want is unbelievable, and Jane is definitely not a doormat. When shes had enough youll find yourself smiling as she tells others what she thinks. But this story will also have you reaching for the tissues. Keep them handy.

Great relationships with friends is an important aspect of this book and I finished this with a warm fuzzy feeling.

This book is a sequel that’s equal to the original.

Jane, our main character, continues her life as a new vampire, but this time she has to not only deal with her own problems but the impending wedding of her male best friend to a werewolf.

Like the last book this one is a slice-of-life type of book, even though we are talking about mostly undead main characters. It’s funny and, a bit romantic. And like the last book the characters… oh the characters are so good. They are so well made, you really feel how well rounded they are. How human they are, even if they’re not exactly human.

Unlike the last book it doesn’t have as much action packed into it. There’s a bit of a mystery to solve but that’s about it, which is neither a bad thing nor a good thing. Another difference from the last book is that we get some mention about what Jane’s boyfriend and “sire” (the one who turned her into a vampire), does for a living.

My biggest nitpicky complaint about the last book was that he doesn’t seem to have a life outside of his interactions with Jane. In this book we get a taste of what he does. Which, of course, pleases me greatly.

Now for some bad news… As I said before, there isn’t much action in this book, which doesn’t bother me, but it might feel a bit meandering and pointless to those out there who want to read something with “high stakes”. If you’re looking for an action book with vampires and other undead creatures you will be severely disappointed with this book. If you’re looking for a save the world/town/rec center type of heroine, this book does not have that. Well maybe the last one, kind of, but it’s a stretch… you’ll understand if you read this book.

5 stars. This book is so good for reading in bed. It’s comfortable and wonderful. A great follow up…

Always the bridesmaid …. and in the ugliest dress ever created. Jane Jameson, newly turned vampire has the pleasure of being the bridesmaid and helping plan the wedding of her best friend Zeb and his werewolf fiance. Jollene, the bride, has chosen the theme Titanic for the wedding. One of the worst disasters ever. This wedding is shapping up to be the second. Jollene’s werewolf clan is less than enthusiastic about her marrying a human. And the groom may not make it to the alter if her family doesn’t stop “havin’ a bit of fun” with him. So far he’s lost a toe, needed an eyepatch for an unfortunate bottle rocket accident and had part of his ear ripped off while fishing. If that’s not enough, Zeb is suffering terrible headaches and saying hurtful things to his bride to be. Making her family even less happy.
Jane has also learned some rather disturbing things about her grandmother’s latest finance starting with his strange eating habits. Given her relationship with her grandmother and her reaction to Jane’s turning, Jane is not sure whether to tell her or not.
Gabriel is Jane’s sire and boyfriend. He says he loves her, but hes been traveling, a lot, and keeping secrets from Jane. He gets mysterious phone calls from someone named Jeanine. A name Jane has never heard him mention. The vampire council has also gotten involved and told him to clean it up or they would. Jane is confused and hurt that he won’t confide in her.
Jane also suffers a personal loss that may change her future, for the good. And Jane really needs something good to come into her life.
I love this series. Its funny, and the characters are well written. You’ll fall in love with them immediately. If you love paranormal romance written with some humor, I think you’ll love this book.
