Love in Vein by Poppy Z. Brite

challenging dark slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

2.0

What the fuck did I read? I know I was a kid in the 90s but I don't remember it being so messed up. This was protrayed as being erotic but it's just horrific. If this was marketed as a bunch of horror then I'd get it. And don't even get me started on the homophobia....

This wasn't at all what I was expecting and I definitely wouldn't recommend it unless you want to bleach your brain after.

And yes, I will read the next one because I'm like that.
