5.0

I have never read anything from Keith Rosson before despite seeing Fever House duology everywhere, and I am really glad I got the oppertunity to read an ARC of Coffin Moon because boy it was a RIDE!

Rosson brought everything I wanted to this book that I've wanted in true vampire novels, and I really liked reading this book because it felt so real with the emotional reactions of the characters and the emotional journeys that both Minor and Julia go through in the duration of this book. 

I do wish that there was more historical concepts/information during the novel because it's being billed as a 'historical horror' so I wanted just a bit more of the 1970s aesthetic throughout the novel.

I will forever recommend this over any other true vamp horror novel, and Rosson is definitely one of my top authors to keep an eye on now. 

Thank you Penguin Random House and Netgalley for the free ARC for review!
