What worked- Vampires, witches, fairies, and demons (oh my)! This one was a little slow to start but once I got into it I could not stop. Literally. I stayed up til 4am because I couldn’t put it down. 
I loved all the characters but as a vampire girlie I really loved William and his family’s story. 
Maybe it’s because I live in New Orleans, where we bury our dead above ground so they’re never quite settled or because of the turbulent background and those from the past have something to say but I’ve always thought there were Others here (and I’m hoping they end up here further in the story). So I was really intrigued by this unique storyline. 
What didn’t work- Athough Olivia is a political consultant, I didn’t expect it to get so political. It fully aligned with how I think but at some points I felt it was a little too much. If you’re a fan of West Wing you’ll love it.
