āDo not think for one moment that you are replaceable, Cassie Greenberg. For you are anything but.ā
I didn't have that high expectation of this book so when I actually did start reading it, it amazed me how much it made me smile and laugh even in public. It's a really silly rom-com between a vampire and a human and I think that the author really did have a blast writing this. What really made me drop the rating is the last quarter of the book where it really just felt silly and ironically, something that would never happen. So yeah, even if I did enjoy more than half of the book, it really was down to how it ended. The third act conflict really was just a disappointment and I wished that the author has made it more serious compared to how it was written.
However, I would love a Frederick as a roommate. The dialogues was amazingly witty. Plus points for the little sneak peek of Frederick's POV at every start of the chapter.

I enjoyed the way the chapters were structured. Having a note or news article that set the scene was fun to read. I thought the vampire man was a very funny character, and I thought the reason for having him seem so old-fashioned was quite unique and clever.
Overall it was nice, though I stopped right when it was getting juicy in the drama department, shame.

It took me a lot longer to finish than I had thought, but thatās mainly because I found it hard to get into.
I enjoyed the concept of the book. However, I felt that it fell short in its execution.
I could partially relate to the FMC but not enough that I felt invested in knowing more about her or her hobbies ETC. She had a bad habit of repeating herself or actions. āHeās so cold to the touch,ā āheās so attractive,ā āplaced my hand where his heartbeat wouldāve been.ā Yes, we get itā¦
The MMC was more tolerable, but I feel that is basically because the book is written completely in our FMCās POV.
I did not enjoy the ending, or the last few pages leading up to it.
I feel the author wrote herself into a situation she wasnāt sure how to get herself out of, and it just felt flat. Although the story ties off almost all the aspects of the story, it always just feels like they didnāt all intertwine well with each other, but that may also have been because of my inability to become in invested in the story.
For those who want to know which piece I felt was not tied off please see below:
Overall, not the best but not the worst.
Based off of the writing and storytelling I donāt think Iāll be picking up this author again.

The book also could have used some editing. In particular I found the timeline confusing at best and even contradictory a few times.
