Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodreads Review: Proof that a good writer can get you to root for absolutely anyone – an excellent read with once again fascinating characters but I have to say I did enjoy the Godfather more 💜

Goodreads Blurb: When Jonathan Harker visits Transylvania to help Count Dracula with the purchase of a London house, he makes a series of horrific discoveries about his client.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goodreads Review: The first thing that strikes me is just how damn likeable everyone in this book is. Well … everyone except the vampires but then they’re evil blood-sucking fiends from Hell I think we can just let them be their unlikable, murderous selves. We don’t have to go and woobify the vampires, right internet? Internet? Why is nobody answering back?
