A good, mysterious book! Well written, i sometimes had goosebumps. But the ending could have been a bit better.

Aaaah, the premise sounded so cool but I had such a hard time with this. It was just so boring! I can't get over it how Blake managed to write a mystery involving a serial killer and possibly even vampires that's absolutely bland! Adding to that, the fact that a 16-year old boy was allowed to interview a murder suspect just seems so unlikely. It doesn't even seem legal and yet his father works for the police? The fuck was that about?! And Marie was such a weird character. And not in a good way. She said things like "Everyone said I was a bad girl. He said I wasn't." What does it even mean? We never get to know who "he" is as the entire fucking mystery is unsolved! The book went absolutely nowhere. When he's talking about the murders, Michael comments it with "So female. A women couldn't commit murders like that." Oh, I beg to differ. There were female serial killers, and this sentence made me think the author was a man (it's not). I absolutely did not have a good time and I hope there are better books out there to make spooky season interesting.
