This is a perfect read for the spooky season and I enjoyed this book so much. While I had my issues with a few things overall I really loved this book.

All the supernatural aspect flowed really well together and we get to see different sides of the supernatural genre in this book, which is rare; you either get vampires and werewolves, or witches and wizards. You don't usually get the spread of supernatural creates that we got in this book. And not in a way that feels cohesive and concise. 

Anna Dressed in Blood is my second Kendare Blake series and in every one of her books that I've read so far I ship the main character with a ghost. The way their relationship is written just makes you fall in love with them and their relationship and I wish they could find a way to be together.

The dark/slight humor in this book was the icing on the cake for me. I love Kendare Blake's humor it's so slight that you can miss it, my humor is the same and I adored it in this book.

Without spoilers all I can say about a certain scene is WTF!!! Why did you have to do that! No how could you!!!

If you want to know what I'm talking about just know it involves a death that I will pretend didn't happen.

This started off really good and kind of spooky. But then the romance was stupid and insta-lovey so it annoyed me. I for the most part liked the characters. I’m glad I read this but it was nothing special to be honest.
