The Night Inside by Nancy Baker
5.0
“I should have let you stay lost.”
I’d read around that this is a criminally underrated vampire book and that a lot of people are surprised it didn’t gain much traction when it was published in the 90s. Most surprising to me was that the more negative reviews were largely about the lack of romance??? Excuse me, but HELLO? This book had me chanting “Straight Rights!” at 3am in my kitchen. What are vampire novels if not stalwart accounts of repression and the vague blackness of desire burning beneath?? Is there anything hotter than moral decay and retribution??? Ladies. Do better!
