I really loved this! It had me thinking about the characters even when I wasn’t actually reading it, I cared about what happened to them. I really had no idea that ending was coming though! I thoroughly enjoyed this from start to finish. I may have to go and read Dracula now...

The cover and the title sold this book for me, but unfortunately, the book itself didn't quite deliver. There was enough mystery to keep me reading, but the middle was extremely slow. We focused so completely on Tillie's addiction for much of the book that I found myself quite bored with her. I wished we could have seen more of the nightlife and Ian.
