1.0

This reads like a cheap knockoff of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Bones is just Spike with less interesting character development. Can’t decide if the FMC is a self-insert or if the author had to change so many of Buffy’s character for it to be a new story that she lost all charm. Fans of BTVS - avoid this mess and stick to fanfic!

The characters aren't very unique and some parts of the story were predictable, but it was still a very fun read. The plot was exciting to follow and after this ending, I will definitely continue this series!

The MC Couple dynamic was just tedious and very very sexist.

There are a few toxic troupes involving relationships and jealous, but it still an entertaining read with a better love story than “Twilight.”
