Overall, a great enemies-to-lovers
to-enemies
vampire book. The plot of the Kejari was fantastic and even-paced, fast where it needed to be, & slow and character driven when it needed to be. I did not find the world building to be too intense or heavy right off the bat, which was a huge plus. I enjoyed the rival Houses aspect, and although the plot twists were not hard for me to figure out well in advance, I find the plot & the characters’ relationship compelling enough that I will certainly pick up the next book with glee. As always with vampire books, I love the unique way this author handles vampirism and its lore. The mythological aspect was a huge plus for me & I thought was a delightful touch to the world building. I hope to see more of the other gods & goddesses brought into the story in the future.
