A huge thank you to the author for having me on their ARC team! All opinions are my own.

I had the absolute time of my life reading this book! The Killigrew Street crew gives me everything I loved about its comp titles (Supernatural, Dead Boy Detectives, What We Do in the Shadows, and Torchwood). Seriously, if you love any of those, you don't want to miss this book!

My favorite things about the book: the banter (seriously top tier), the found family (who doesn't love escaping your real family only to be adopted by a ragtag group of supernatural beings?), Felix (I absolutely love him, okay?!), the 500 year old broody vampire with a heart of gold, and Rory (who wouldn't love a gay, ADHD, golden retriever werewolf). That's not to say I didn't love the rest of the crew, they're all fantastic, I just felt most drawn to them.

I was seriously on the edge of my seat in the last 3rd of the book. Definitely did NOT see the ending coming. No spoilers, but I gasped at the reveal. You can order the paperback and ebook now! I believe the author is also going to have a signed option at some point, so keep an eye on their socials.
