3.0 ⭐️, 2.5 🌶️
A cute, fun vampire rom-com to slide into spooky season with.

Characters: 0.5; FMC noticeably more developed than MMC, fun side characters
Plot: 0.5; silly rom-com plot that suffered from an oblivious FMC and low stakes at the end
Pacing: 0.5; decent but with a rushed ending
Writing Style: 0.5; fun, approachable style
Vibes: 1.0; the note-writing and text/email conversations were hilarious and my favorite parts, I still have the urge to sign my texts off with "yours in good health"

Spice: 2.5; vanilla with a vampiric twist. When the spice does happen, the vampire MMC takes on a much more dominant, intense personality than he was previously characterized as having, similarly the FMC becomes much more submissive. Both seemed out of character, but the spice was still good.
