Silver in the Blood by Jessica Day George

3.0

---

So there's a girl and her cousin who are also the best of friends who find out their family in Romania are hiding a LOT of secrets. Honestly this book was just such cheesey fun. Vampires! Werewolves!! Centuries old family prophecies!!!! Women coming into their own and developing their own strength!!!!! It's pretty damn fun. Doesn't hurt that I also have Romanian heritage, and for some reason that means I'm more game to read stuff like this... ? I dunno man. ANYWAY, it was totally worth it. Like I said, a lot of fun and also had some unexpected twists that I really didn't see coming. Be warned though, there are quite a few scenes of sexual assault/harassment which could be triggering for some people. Also the toxic family part. But if you can handle that, I'm sure you'll enjoy this like you enjoy eating food that is bad for you but it tastes so good so you can't resist.
