Can't decide how I feel about the allusion to King George and Queen Charlotte

Also the 'drinking blood = heartbeats' seems inconsistent:
Maria feels her heart beat after killing Sabine, Alice doesn't since she drinks from a cup, but Charlotte does even though she appears to be drinking from a cup (unless she is drinking from Sabine)

Shouldn't drinking from other vampires not pass the heartbeat due to their nature?

It's complicated cuz they're supposed to lose their humanity yet I can't help but feel like they lack depth as characters

Alice's flashbacks are throwing me off 😭
Her (and Sabine's) anger often feel unfounded, despite the book being marketed as a "story about rage"
