danni11's review against another edition
3.0
Thank you Netgalley for letting me read this book in return for an honest review.
Olivia is about a vampire who has PTSD and a fear of humans but when her Parrot becomes ill and needs the vet, she ends up having to go to a vet who is a human. We watch how Olivia has to face her fears for the safety of her beloved animal.
At the beginning of the book, I was fairly hooked and interested in the concept but as the book progressed and a figure from the past came back into her life, I found myself losing interest. Maybe it was because I expected the book to focus more on the Lesbian relationship and then gradually introduce the characters from the past but I found the pacing rather jarring.
The romance is rather low-key to me and I found myself interested in the characters separately but not together. Mia has Bipolar and has to take medications from a market (the market is like a Fiend market) and Olivia has PTSD as well as a bad past which is both interesting and quite nice for more mental health rep.
Overall, it is an interesting world that has been built (which probably helps because this is a sequel/spin-off) but I really could not get fully into it and found myself taking forever to try and finish the book which is really unlike me.
