I really liked the writing style, it was direct and exciting. No pointless asides! I also liked how not every single little thing was spelled out for the reader, that the author trusted us enough to leave some things unexplored and unsaid. It kept the book fast and tight and spare, perfect for a vampire ghost story.

I'm docking 1 star for the epilogue, which was just a bunch of nonsense. It 100% reads as if the editor forced the author to add some more "insights" and the book is worse for it. Going out on an ambiguous note would have been so fucking cool, I wish that they had had to the courage to be bold like that.
