So, honestly the title is kinda misleading. The book club fell apart halfway through, there was absolutely no guide for slaying vampires and there was only one vampire not vampires. And they only killed him in like the last few pages and no one even believed he was a vampire for most of the book.


The way the characters all didn’t believe Patricia was honestly super annoying and I hated her husband, I wish he died.


But the writing was very emotion provoking and it kept me hooked. Grady has an amazing talent of making you feel anxious for the characters. Yet, he does go off the deep end usually in the last view chapters


Overall it’s a good read and if you’re chill with paranormal stuff and gore then you’d enjoy it.
