ngl i didn't vibe with the writing here, i feel like the prose were too much and underwhelming at the same time, bordering pretentious that it takes me out of the story sometimes. But u know what? this book promise me a queer poly reimagined Dracula, and boy did it deliver and more. I love the dynamic of the characters with each other(specially the sapphics) that in the end i was just rooting and clapping and cheering them on like Yaaas!!!do crime and be gay baby!!!
