Fang Fiction blends fanfic with vampire romance, giving us a story about how fiction can aid in recovery from trauma. Tess Rosenbloom is a former PhD student who dropped out of school after being sexually assaulted by one of her peers. Tess finds solace in the Blood Feud series and it's fandom. Her life takes a turn when she meets Octavia Yoo, a vampire from the books who is now stuck in the real world. Tess then embarks on a mission to find Octavia’s twin brother, Callum on the Isle and deliver a message that Octavia is alive. 

Tess’s trauma should be handled with grace and sensitivity, but it did become gimmicky? Romantic scenes would have her bring up her trauma? But a moment later she’s fine. 

The characterization sometimes lacks subtlety, and the plot sometimes feels a bit flimsy. At times it's a little campy and Tess feels like a Mary Sue, and there are instances of awkward pacing due to multiple POV.
