This book was SO WORTH THE 12 WEEK LIBRARY WAIT. Oh my god. The sapphic Carmilla retelling we all deserved! ST Gibson doesn’t ever let us down with her beautiful storytelling and characters. I loved the dual perspectives, and enemies to lovers is always a winning trope for me. 

I would have given this five stars, however, the ending felt very rushed. Things were still happening up until the last ten pages and the suddenly it was just…over. And not in a cliffhanger, fun kind of way. It felt like “I need to end this right now”. I genuinely enjoyed every second other than that, and highly recommend it. It was a fantastic book.
