ARC Review
A really well written and provocative story.
Laura leaves her Southern home behind for college at Saint Perpetua’s in Massachusetts and is quickly thrust into a deep academic rivalry which changes her life.
The story mainly revolves around Laura’s poetry studies and because of this features lots of beautiful prose.
I really enjoyed the darker elements of the story and the strong character development. I would love to have attended the epic Halloween party described!
A faster pace would have seen it getting 5 stars.
Themes/tropes: Rivals to lovers, vampires, dark academia, sapphic romance, coming of age
2/5 🌶️ rating
