Got some “Let the Right One In” vibes from this.

When I first came across this book in some sort of review it was something like, “This is a really weird story and different” etc etc but it’s just a regular story. Another meh for me.

I cannot understand what Domingo saw in Atl to become so loyal and in love. At one point I thought that would break and he realized that he shouldn’t hang out with vampires but, nope.
