Check out me reading this in my ARC vlog: https://youtu.be/RfN1kpTWm1s
This follows Serwa Boateng who grows up training as a vampire hunter! She is one day left in a humane town when her parents are going on a mission. However, turns out this town isn't so safe after all and there is a vampire to hunt!
I loved this book a lot, the humor, the friendship, the Ghanaian mythlogy/legends woven in, the world building, the characteres... everything was done so well and I honestly had the best time reading this. However omg... the ending... LEFT ME SCREAMING. It was so unexpected and exactly what I love in an ending. When Rick introduced the book and said it was an ending that would leave you wanting he was not lying. If you don't like cliffhangers.... hehehehe. I literally cannot wait for the next book! This was a so splendid and I know I would recommened it whenever I have the chance. 4.5/5 stars.

can't remember the last time i loved a book like this!! esp a fantasy book! serwa is my child! roxy, gavin, eunju & mateo are also my children! i'm so jealous of all the kids that get books like this to read, seeing my culture in this way was soo amazing and honestly i learned a lot about ghanaian folklore that i genuinely didn't know. patiently waiting for the next one to be released
