161636 Forgot to add to this when I finished. I enjoyed this but it was so chaotic. This was my third from the series and this was my favourite but in general I don't really like the world these stories takes place in.
161636 The bat voice is so cute but also hilarious. I love that this ancient vampire is a BTS fan. It's all fun now but bring on the violence and gore!

Reading the blurb, I was emotionally preparing myself all the way through for heartbreak at the end. I was shocked and amazed when he actually did find Haru again. Kind of made it a fairytale ending.

Sometimes with books like this, you feel so much empathy for the character that you can't really enjoy the book and just feel emotionally drained. I'm glad with this one though it was sad it still felt light and hopeful.

Well done for catching that. I didn't see it at all.

161636 I love a spelling challenge!

I don't know who's for sure signing up yet but would like to be on a team with Amanda and Deeneez

161636 I love when books start out with that 'oh my god you're so sexy but also so annoying and I kind of hate you but also really want to rip your clothes off'

Sexual tension already high and loving the magical artifacts.

I'm not going to read through your posts for risk of spoilers, but will comment once I'm done :)

161636 I've just finished this and thank goodness for the ending! But I'll get more into that when you've finished.. This was such a beautiful story about a teen drowning in grief. I listened to the audio and got through it in two sittings, it was just really easy to listen to.
