This reads to me like an action movie. One of the good ones that has cool fight scenes, great atmosphere but also a very strong plot. i love the many different kinds of vampires. And how the author used colonialism in the story was clever. Domingo’s heart left me in awe so many times. sadly it is common to see a kind person being criticised and perceived as naive, and people called Domingo that in the book, but Domingo proved so many times that he knew what could happen, but he still chooses to be kind and hopeful. The end left me a bit disappointed cause I felt that it needed a stronger ending, but it might be a personal preference. Still loved the ride!
