This is a good example of a book that performs better as an audiobook. I originally tried to read this a few years back, and just couldn't get into it. However listening recently on audio really helped me understand the tone of the story. Its very southern, in the best way possible, and acts similarly to a vampire romance parody without actually being one. It's really just a slightly kinky & unsettling mystery that doesnt take itself too seriously.
