Fell of Dark

I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH!!

Tonally reminded me of THIRSTY, but very gay. So so fun—I haven't been this fully immersed and invested in a book in a while. Do read!!!

Roehrig writes teenagers in a realistic and approachable way. This is geared towards YA and many of the characters are 16/17 but I didn't find them annoying or overly dramatic like I do with a lot of YAs now that I'm of a certain age.
It's also really well paced with a lot of action and drama and a huge exciting showdown fight at the end. Some of it is still eyeroll inducing but it fits in with the story and there's a lot of humour thrown in to keep the reader engaged.
I tagged it M/M romance but it's mostly crush-levels with some kissing. We get pretty close to a M/M/M scene not once but twice but then we're cockblocked by the end of the chapter, but this isn't surprising since it's still YA. I'd have liked to see maybe less characters and more interaction between Jude, Gunnar, and our MC but they're not quite central to the plot so they're just another on a long cast list.

Overall, a really fun book in a style I very much enjoyed. I'll be reading more of Roehrig's work, and I need more vampire books like this one.

A lot of boners..and vampires..and some pretty cool magic.
