Pros

  • A dowry of blood - S.T. Gibson (romantic, horror, fantasy)
  • A dowry of blood by ST Gibson
  • I know not a single thing about the original Dracula yet I love A Dowry of Blood. No confusion whatsoever
  • it didn't quite live up to Gibson's other vampire book (A Dowry of Blood) for me.
  • I liked this one, but it didn't quite live up to Gibson's other vampire book (A Dowry of Blood) for me.

Cons

  • I also really disliked it. I am so glad I saw this comment because I feel like I’m the only person. I keep hearing absolute rave reviews about this book, and I fully rage finished it.
  • Parent context: Personally, I think the Dracula connection might as well have been a marketing gimmick shoehorned in Reply: I felt the same. Nothing even really happened??? “You kept me in your horny jail for centuries 😓” the end
  • Personally, I think the Dracula connection might as well have been a marketing gimmick shoehorned in
  • This book punished me for my impulsiveness.
  • I really disliked it, so if you don't love Dowry I'd recommend still checking out Dracula.
