4.75

I tossed up on ranking this a 4.75 or 5 star, because this book just slays so goddamn hard and is one that fully sticks with you. BUT IS ALSO FULLY FRUSTRATING. Cat, just kill the guy FFS. Why Rodney? Also why did old mate get turned into a vamp. I wanted the end of the fight between Cat and Bones to go a bit more slay than that ngl; I wanted it to have a bit more of an oomph. I NEEED Bones' perspective on this.

Also Vlad is the girl bestie; and Spade is an icon. I love these characters; and wow does everything make a lot more sense on the 2nd proper reread.

This book was too angsty for me.   I'm not a fan of cheating, miscommunication, and contrived arguments. I love Vlad.  I'm tired of Cat lying by omission. I'm not sure she deserves Bones. </ spoiler>
