5.0

I loved this book! The characters, story, and writing were all great. I highlighted sooo many gorgeous lines. I loved the atmosphere. I really enjoy gothic books, so having a BLACK, sapphic Dracula retelling was amazing! And although it’s a longer book, it didn’t feel boring or drawn out at all. It had a great pace. 

I did feel confused sometimes though. There were a couple times where things were said, and I’d be thinking “I feel like I’m missing something, but I’m rolling with it”. That was a very small complaint compared to how much I enjoyed this book though. Highly recommend!

I need ALL the Black gothic books!🦇🥰
