Beyond Cool is the second book about Floe Ryan, a thawed "frozen zombie." That's her term for it, but really Floe was preserved after her death (vitrified, or "frozen,") which happened about this time, and then "thawed" a decade later. Even though it's only ten years, things are a lot different. For one thing, Floe's younger sister, Sunny, is now her older sister! Also, people don't drive anymore--they hoverdrive (something Floe's having a bit of a problem with). Teachers and movie stars are computer-generated. Luckily, Floe's got another frozen zombie to help her deal with all of this--her boyfriend, Taz. Of course, when Taz starts acting kind of distant, and Floe finds out that she and her fellow frozen zombies are suffering from weak immune systems that make them susceptible to major diseases, plus she's having trouble learning to hoverdrive, life as a teenage popsicle is less than fabulous.
