My Viking Vampire
by Krystal Shannan
adventurous
hopeful
tense
fast-paced
This book impressed me. Better than I expected. This is a romance, fantasy, and also a book about working through unimaginable trauma. There are a lot of trigger warnings, I marked most of them as graphic to be on the safe side. Most of the content warnings are from the main character's past. I felt that these issues were surviver-focused and used to highlight the strength of the main character. Somehow, the book still felt light, despite the dark content. Sexual, physical, and emotional trauma is entwined of the make-up of this book. But so is healing.
