Interesting and very creative plot!! 

The unnecessary gruesome scenes did keep me from totally loving this book

Wasn't great in the first few chapters but I found myself starting to love the characters. It also has the found family trope which is one of my favorites.

I didn’t expect this book to be as heavy as it was. I thought it was just going to be a funny vampire story, not one with three immortal girls dealing with centuries of trauma and a toxic ex. Granted, it was still great, it just wasn’t what I expected at all.

Took me a long time since I don’t listen to audio books much but incredibly well done. I was enamored the entire time. Have never loved a vampire story more.

Slightly violent, very quick ending. It felt like it was all build up to one event that was over way too quickly. 
LGBTQ rep is always a plus though and the rules of the vampires were interesting in this book
