This wasn’t my favorite of the three, but it was still an enjoyable read! I wasn’t entirely sold on Ben’s personality—some aspects felt contradictory. And how is it that his sister only has the same friends as him, yet she was never mentioned in the previous books?

That said, I really enjoyed the story. Ben’s dynamic with Eleanora, a fierce vampire succubus trapped in a cursed crystal, was entertaining. Their contrasting personalities—his anxious yet nurturing nature and her blunt, fiery demeanor—made for great banter and character growth. Seeing familiar faces from the previous books was also a treat. And I will never complain about more Lilith scenes! She absolutely needs her own book next—or at the very least, Hawley needs to publish some of Lilith’s fanfic!
