The Summer I Ate the Rich by Maika Moulite and Maritza Moulite
Brielle Petitfour did not grow up with a silver spoon in her mouth. Lately, she has been watching those who did eat the food she has labored over without much appreciation. For years, she has watched those with silver spoons take her chronically sick mother's caretaking and emotional labor for granted without bothering to even learn how to pronounce her name. When a tragedy strikes the family that Brielle's mother works for (which then leads to her mother losing her job), Brielle feels it is up to her to get them on the right path. However, Brielle is part zonbi (somewhat similar to what you may know as a zombie). Did I not mention that yet? Yes, Brielle is part zonbi, but don't let your preconceived notions of what a zombie is cloud your view of her. The skilled author duo of Maika Moulite and Maritza Moulite will artfully explain how and what Brielle exactly is, if you give them a chance. While I will say that the cover blurb is a bit misleading as I had read it as saying...
