Various thoughts while reading the book (there may be spoilers):

  • A few dozen pages in, this book is about 50% pretty good, 20% really good, and 30% cute.
  • Neat vampire concept. According to his podcast, Super Scare Haunted Homeschool, he spent a ridiculous amount of time studying vampire lore history, and it shows. He took a very unique approach to the vampire, while at the same time, keeping it very obviously a recognizable vampire.
  • Overtly sexual without being sexy. The transfer of fluids in a very specific bodily location increases the rape-yness that vampirism already exemplifies.
  • About 2/3 of the way through, the book is 60% pretty good, 30% really good, and still 10% cute.
  • All the husbands in this book suck. Not a single one is a redeemable character.
  • Time jump! Finding it hard to believe in the 3-year gap, maybe it will pay off in some way.
  • COCKROACH …
