This was a great read to wrap up spooky season. In a small college town in Vermont in the late 80s, Jonathan Evergreen discovers there's much more to his cool new Gothic Lit professor than meets the eye. He's inexplicably drawn to Dacian Bathory from first sight. 

Be prepared for lots of vampire lore, including Dracula references and what feels like Twilight moments as Jonathan learns more about Dacian and works to solve a supernatural mystery about deaths in town.
 
While the mystery was pretty clear from the beginning, the author, Kit Vincent, weaves a beautiful tale that addresses identity and societal shunning, drawing parallels between the pitch-fork vampire hunters and the more realistic small town homophobia that Jonathan faced in childhood. 

I've really enjoyed both books I've read by Kit Vincent (Us, Et Cetera). There's poetry to their writing that's hard for this non-author to adequately express. 

I received this ARC from @netgalley and publisher @victoryeditingngc. The opinions are my own. 

Love Immortal was released on October 22nd.
