A review by chelsss_ann
After Dark by Kira Bates
Did not finish book. Stopped at 17%.
Thank you to Grey's Promotions and Kira Bates for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
I DNFed this at about 20%. The combination of vampires, cowboys, and mystery really had me intrigued. But in that first 20% there were already so many plot holes. Like seriously, something mysteriously happened to a guy on the ferris wheel and you saw someone with red glowing eyes run away from the scene, but you still choose to go out on a date and leave your best friend home alone? While they still haven't caught the person who hurt the guy at the carnival? And then on top of that, you walk to the date?! Just no. The FMC is supposed to be smart, and that's just not.
I see the potential for this though. Though with a lot of developmental editing. It seems like the ending needs a good bit of editing as well, based on other reviews. If you're gong into this for purely vibes, it might be a good read though.
