I do want to bring up that it's 2023 and naming voices "male" or "female" is so dated. It happens several times and really took me out of it.

For over a decade, Mia has been drawing her own blood for her mother, avoiding making any relationship that might alert people to her mother's condition. When the man who turned her mother starts coming back into their lives, Mia's strained relationship with her mother begins to crumble and she starts searching for an escape.
Night's Edge is a fantastic story about toxic relationships and the difficulty in leaving them as well as the feeling of obligation. Mia's anxiety is contagious — I was so stressed while reading! This was a fantastic horror with an amazing premise. Please check content warnings before reading though and be warned that this is not a good book for you if you're squeamish.
Thank you Netgalley for providing a digital ARC.
