Reviews with content warning for Sexual content - Fangs

I saw this book on social media and I love reading about vampires so I wanted to find it. The fact that it was also a graphic novel and looked very pretty was a plus. The story went by really fast and I wished it had been a little slower to see Elise & Jimmy’s relationship unfold together. However, with them I got a little bit of Mavis & Johnny vibes. Just that Johnny was a human in Hotel Transylvania but I felt like if he wasn’t a human this would have been them.

This book also had a darker sense of humor than I thought, but helped it be more adult in nature with how Elise & Jimmy interacted and joked about each other and themselves as ‘monsters’.

One great part of it being a graphic novel is that you could see & understand parts of them without having to have them state it outright with words or a descriptive paragraph. I was able to get through this book in about 16 minutes according to StoryGraph. Went so fast that I didn’t even get quotes and notes down, but I can always read it again later to get a quote if I really want one.

I actually laughed out loud when he opened the curtains and Elise just BURST into flames in the bed

Why does the “I want your love blood quote that’s on the back of the book not a part of the actual story? I think that could have been really cute as a scene.

really cute! really really love sarah's art style. elsie is a gender icon. just a lighthearted collection of short pages about these two. maybe found myself wanting some sort of arc or structure to latch onto, but that's not what it's going for and that's okay!
