Where to begin with this book. Easily a modern classic, Gibson has an incredible way with words that left me agape at every sentence. The characters where incredibly compelling and the toxic relationships between them even more so. This is a queer feminist take on the brides of Dracula, focusing on the toxic relationship and the liberation from it. Incredible!!
