The worldbuilding is interesting and the plethora of characters is well-rounded with interesting multidimensional personalities. Especially disability is written very respectfully as a normal part of the characters' lives into the plot. I think I'll reread the series further soon.
It is worth mentioning, though, that some of the wordings and mindsets especially around lgbtq+ community (

But I thought the relationship between the MCs developed well, there was some good hurt/comfort, and the disability representation was surprisingly well done.
I hated Butch tbh, but maybe I was supposed to? I’ve heard he develops throughout the series. Overall very enjoyable read, but would only recommend to friends tolerant of the cringe/ generally some offensive stuff that just didn’t age well.
Ps. There’s a lot of sexual assault threat/ attempts floating throughout the book. None from close characters, but still enough to give someone the ick for sure.

The sexual assault and sexual harassment is not done by either of the main characters. Some of the violence is brushed off because it was against prostitutes… like that made it not a big deal.elwyn_k's review

So many things were conveniently coincidental. It was full of tropes that I hate, like fridging, dubious consent, insta-lust/love, etc...
The take on vampires was different I suppose but the secret society based enemy was decidedly wacky. Will not be continuing the series.
