Never have I hated a character more than EVERY SINGLE man in this book. Hendrix managed to write amazingly realistic characters who I utterly despised. The husbands were almost more horrible to read about than the horror elements themselves.
This book was an enticing mix of murder mystery and vampire novel, and included really impactful explorations of misogyny/abusive relationships and casual/socially ingrained racism.
Trigger warning for pretty much everything you could ever think of.
