July reads 2/9 💙📚 #booksky V.E. Schwab - Bury our bones in the midnight soil ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It promises toxic vampire lesbians and that is what you get. When Schwab said that this is inspired by Anne Rice's vampires, I was intrigued but a tiny bit sceptic.

Rice has been on top of my list of favorite authors for a long time and the feeling her books give, is still unparalleled. But this is very close to it and deliciously so. This is a slow burn and a good more about vibes and feelings than action.
