One of the most brilliant, deeply inspiring, and pertinent pieces of fiction I have ever had the privilege to read.

I feel really awful that I didn't love this as much as I wanted to, but the narrative style was not for me. I was just not a fan of how slow, and therefore long, each section felt.

LOVED IT! This book is everything to me right now. Checked it out from the library but then bought it before I was done because I wanted to be able to keep it near. It is for real giving me life.

The black lesbian vampire novel of your dreams. Published in 1991, it's both remarkably forward thinking and occasionally dated.
