Of all the books in this series, this one was my least favourite. Anita drives me up the wall, and if it wasn’t for the fact this is my best friend’s favourite series, I simply would not continue. Anita is such an unlikeable protagonist, she’s so obnoxious, rude, and full of herself and she does and says nothing that makes me want to root for her, like seriously nothing. My biggest pet peeve though was how LKH brought in sexual assault into this book and did a piss poor job of navigating the topic, and she made it super inconsequential like oh yes they were raped but whoops vampires, like no??! What the fuck?? Ahhh this book made me so angry, I’m glad it was an easy read cause asdfghjkl
