This book had a lot happening, but it felt slow and heavily focused on characters(which I didn't mind because I loved the characters accept maybe laith and arthie more on that later. But the plot could've delivered more). While I enjoyed the concept of the tearoom doubling as a blood supply for vampires, it felt underutilized. 

-My main issue was with Arthie; her character felt flat and lacking depth, especially considering that we’re supposed to believe she’s some criminal mastermind but there’s too much telling and not enough showing. Jin and matteo stood out as my favorite, flick had me intrigued as well, while Laith I could care less about. 

“There’s no time to toddle around, Felicity,” he rasped. “Undress me.”

Flick’s jaw dropped. “I beg your pardon.” Please," Jin tried again.

Absolutely adored the chemistry and banter between flick and jin. WHY CAN'T THEY BE THE MAIN CHARACTERS????😭🤌🏼

"She looked at the stars as if they were home, and he wished, impossibly, that he could take her to them."

Also, Jin gave so much sanji energy🤌🏼

''Now that's no way to treat a lady''

Jin, after asking flick ''did they hurt you??? Did they touch you????'':

“I’m thinking I might go back down there and break some bones,” Jin said.

You don't understand this is SO SANJI CODED!!!

“Family isn’t who we live with but those we would die for.”

-Loved the found family aspect of the story as well.

Overall, The plot didn't wowed me and it felt there was something missing. However, the last 100 pages sparked my curiosity for the sequel, hoping it addresses the shortcomings of this book.
