You can ALWAYS count me in if the story includes sapphic vampires. As someone who fell in love with the web series Carmilla back in 2014, you could say I’m a fan. Also, most people don’t know this, but Carmilla by J. Sheridan Le Fanu is the original™️ vampire story!! It came out about 20 years before Dracula and is sometimes considered direct inspiration for it! So cool!
All that being said, this was okay. I liked certain aspects, but others didn’t work well for me. It was a pretty slow read and I felt like it definitely could’ve been cut down a little, especially the ending. Don’t regret reading it, but also don’t super recommend.
