4.5
A satisfying book about vampires, with all the fixings (just like you imagined them as a kid). Great if you like mysterious books about small towns, or indulging your inner child.
Moderate: Gore
Minor: Racial slurs, Homophobia, and Racism
A bit racist at times, a bit homophobic-- product of its time and also reflecting the small-town ideologies of the people living in "the lot"
