Vampires at Sea by Lindsay Merbaum
1.0

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

How is the story about vampires yawn inducing? This was not a horror. This barely included vampires and their lore. If I wanted to read about toxic straight couples, I would read regular romance. The surrounding story of war didn’t feel complete. It felt like an afterthought to try to give the story some sort of depth or context. The sex felt meh and I could not find myself invested in any part of the relationship shown. Honestly, the story was vulgar for the sake of being vulgar. The vulgarity didn’t add to the story or to the character development in my opinion. At least it was short.
