Minor: Murder
It is a murder mystery and we do see murders, but they happen offscreen and we get a description of murdered bodies. Typical for the genre.melodyseestrees's review against another edition

I enjoyed the twists and turns as the book went on, and loved how Lucy found her footing in her gran’s yarn shop. I crochet and wanted to jump into the pages so I could see the yarns and sweaters the author was writing about. The coziness of the neighbourhood was wonderful, but everyone remained a suspect until the end!
A highly enjoyable book and I can’t wait to read the next in the series.

A fun read, especially with the setting of a knitting shop, but very, very little diversity made me wish there were more variety in the characters.spacerkip's review against another edition

Also refreshing to have a nonfatphobic cozy mystery book to read and I’m hopeful that will be true of the rest of the series as well.

I listened to the audiobook version of this story. I felt the narrator was pretty good and I liked how distinct each of the characters’ voices were, but I did feel like the voice of the main character Lucy sounded a lot older than she was supposed to be.
It also took far too long to get to the vampire reveal given that it’s literally in the title of the book. We could’ve gotten to the real mystery part of the book quicker and spent longer on that and the rest of the story than trying to get to the point where they’re revealed as vampires.
Overall, though, it was a fun, light-hearted read/listen and I’d been interested in listening to more of the series in the future.
