I was captivated from the first page and compelled to keep turing them. This reimagining of Dracula's Bride is written from her POV, and is both a haunting love letter and beautiful confession.
Told over hundreds of years, this story pulls you into the obsession, loneliness, despair, and eventual freedom of Constanta and her fellow consorts.
If you are a fan of dark and emotional reads, then this is a book worth picking up.
