*spoilers*

Oh. My. God.

This was my first read of 2022 and I was not disappointed. I was prepared for the mlm spin of Beauty and the Beast. I was NOT prepared for the Vampire origin story??? I can't even begin to explain how much i absolutely adore this take on vampirism.

And the prospect of Marius, Jak, and Katharine developing a family dynamic??? That's how I perceived it and I give it a 10/10.

Also... "My Jak"... That sends me into orbit.

I absolutely adore this book, I'm excited for the future of this book universe.
