Thank you to DarkLit Press for providing a review copy.
This is one of those rare books that I loved so much, that meant so much to me, that I can barely be articulate about it. It's a book about a vampire, yes, but it's so much more. A meditation on the nature of grief and finding meaning in a life that seems neverending. In the last year, I have suffered some tremendous losses and Our Own Unique Affliction helped me put some things in perspective. It's a book that I wish younger me had been able to read. This is one of my favorite reads of the year. A strong 5 stars.
