Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A stunning gothic romance and reimagining of Dracula’s bride. I’d heard great things about this book for a while, but I’d been putting it off as I wasn’t sure if sexy, polyamorous vampires were up my street. Turns out, they are! 

The writing was just beautiful and I really liked the second person narrative throughout most of the book. Not a lot happens, but the characters are well-written and addictive. It’s a short book, and I could hardly put it down. 

The perfect Halloween read! I will definitely be reading more of S T Gibson’s books.
