A Victorian meditation on vampirism. The rules have been changed — garlic and churchy stuff are out, holy water and silver are in. There are no sparkletards, but there is an outstanding study on forbidden homosexuality in Victorian times. This felt like a really intriguing novel on forbidden passions in Victorian times, that got a big old vampire fist punched right through it. But like Ben Winters and Seth Graham-Smith, I’d totally read Lauren Owen’s next book.

I think I need to use dissapissed-off in my general vernacular.
I already have this book on my to read list, but your review title is fantastic enough to get me to click on the review.
