This book was a super quick read for me. It held my interest and I found it hard to put down, but I was also sick and therefore didn't have other obligations getting in the way. I liked this one more than My Best Friend's Exorcism but less than Horrorstör. His take on a vampire was different than typical stories, which I thought was refreshing. It did take long for the big "reveal", however. I will say, I know I threw a lot of tags/CW down below- I found it hard to categorize them all and which of the 3 content warning levels to use, so I'm sorry if that gets confusing.
