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.

I liked this book overall. The characters had interesting backstories and built complex friendships with each other. I enjoyed learning new rules that applied in this world in terms of vampire lore and abilities. I think the only thing I didn’t love was the insta love storyline and the ending feeling a bit rushed but I thought otherwise this was a great YA read.
