I had to sleep on this review because I had to process what I had just read. This story has a heist, vampires, witty commentary, and a twist you don't see coming until it smacks you in the face. All that said it does have a very slow start and some parts we get more telling than showing. I was also a little disappointed when the heist finally did happen because it had this grand build up and then it just kind of fell flat. Then the ending was so jaw dropping I could not believe it. Oh, also it ends on a cliffhanger with no second book yet *insert crying face here*
