The story is very interesting. It’s rare to find a vampire fantasy that feels totally new so it was super refreshing to read. The first half of this book is in single first person point of view and told through a combination of flashbacks and current timeline, which can be a bit confusing if you aren’t aware so… be aware. ˙ᵕ˙ The second half of the book is in dual point of view which shocked me when it happened, but I do love a dual POV moment, and I connected a lot deeper to the characters in this section. The characters are dimensional and deeply thought out, which makes a story like this so compelling overall I enjoyed it. Rating 3.25 stars because of the timeline confusion in the beginning, I struggled to get into the story for a good 40% because I kept having to re read sections, and rapid time changes pulled me out of the story. I personally prefer if jumps in the timeline are separated chapters because it feels less jarring, but that is all personal preference. I did receive this as a free advanced copy, but after reading I can confidently say I would not have been upset to pay for it.
