This was everything I hoped it would be, and more.
An eroticly seductive and sensual sapphic retelling of Carmilla, filled with rivalry, obsession, desire, control, and, of course, vampires!
From the first page I was drawn in, and as each page was turned, I felt myself becoming more and more enamoured with everything this story had to offer.
The achademic setting, the touch of religion, the smattering of poetry, and the beautiful writing style made reading this an absolute dream.
Each character had such unique and complex personalities that felt so raw, I never wanted their stories to end. What was most interesting to me though, is that each character Gibson writes has this dark aura to them, but Laura felt so different, and it was this contrast and eventual mix that made reading their developments so captivating.
Also, I have questions about that ending. Somebody message me and answer my question, please.
S.T. Gibson has sank her teeth into me and has become quite possibly my favourite author now. I can't wait to read her future works.
