This was a fun and dark horror book spanning over years in the 80s and 90s. 

Had me guessing the whole time. I will day, I thought there’d be more vampire slaying … like I figured these women pretended to do bookclub but really fight vampires or something🤣

 In the end this was a great book about relationships friendships and classism. I wish the women would have been more cohesive throughout the book. I was questioning everyone and everything (which was probably the point) and thoroughly enjoyed all the mystery and intrigue. 

Highly recommend if you like high stakes fast paced horror stories with paranormal elements and morally grey characters that make you want to throw your book. 

Enjoy 🍑🧛‍♂️
