Undead Much?

Stacy Jay's very disappointing YA zombie novel was an absolute mess. It seemed like she really didn't have a clear idea of the plot, she was just making it up as she went along. Her characters were unconvincing and silly, even for a light hearted YA read. And the thing that absolutely *killed* it for me--when she describes a character as throwing something into the backseat of his Corvette. Oh my god. CORVETTES DO NOT HAVE BACKSEATS. Seriously, who doesn't know this? Even if Jay didn't, shouldn't her editor have fact checked this?
