This was better than I expected. I'm a big fan of vampire stories, I mean my favorite movie is The Lost Boys, and I grew up on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This was pretty different and I think that's a good thing. I was kind of scared since a lot of Vampire tropes lean into the sexual side, and I may sound like a hypocrite, but it's the way someone does it. Like Silver Under Nightfall is an adult book with adult themes, but I loved the way the "spice" was written, it wasn't vulgar. I like first Future Diary, because at least in the first volume, the sexual nature wasn't vulgar to me...I know it might change, but that's how I view the first one.

Now with this, it was technically sexual...but it kind of seems like it's poking fun at the genre and twisting it to their own way. And this was kind of funny, it was humorous while having a somewhat serious topic. I do wish he was older, but oh well, he's a fun MC to follow.
