This book had a lot of moments of realism which kept it grounded in some aspects. I understand that when a person gets to be 100+ years old, there's probably a disconnect when it comes to the human understanding of the supernatural world but...
Overall, this book gave me a lot to think about in terms of body acceptance, the facets of internal shame and how all of that impacts everyone around you. The supernatural aspects were interesting but also, kind of baffling. The romance plot was also a bit baffling at times but not terrible.

I will say though, heavy trigger warning regarding weight, body self image, disordered eating etc. It's a constant throughout the book and can be hard to read.
I feel like this lacked in the story building for the vampire rules and such. I've read a lot of vampire books, all with different lore, but this one seemed to rely heavily on those callbacks to pop culture references to other vampire franchisees (Twilight, Buffy..) so I feel like it didn't really stand on its own. But, as someone who unapologetically loves Twilight, I LOVED all the twilight references made in this book, I was laughing so hard.
There also was a lot of plot holes, or things that just didn't make much sense or were just a waste of information.

Be warned that this book contains the murder of a lover, the accidental death of a guardian, absentee fathers, and a whole lot of biting.seyfert's review against another edition
