While I really enjoyed the story and the edging, the only thing that saved this book from being a 2-3 star is all the other characters besides Elara, and the fact that I've got a soft spot for Orcs but we ain't gonna talk about that. I didn't notice much of a main plot to the story besides the main characters randomly being all over each other, but that's not really a plot, to me.

I don't like Elara. She's naive and dumb like most 'typical' female MCs in stuff like this. If this book was strictly from her POV, I probably would have DNFed it because I can't stand a stupid female MC. If she were YOUNG young, like early 20s, I might be able to overlook her naivety, but I'm assuming she's mid to late 20s, at least, which is old enough to know that a guy with pointy teeth and a smooth charming personality is a vampire. iykyk. I also might be a little bais because she decided that a pink smart car was a good vehicle to have in a mountain town... yeah. Grondar is so relatable, to me, minus the misogynistic stuff, but that's just an Orc thing, imo. And Flora! OMG, I love that woman. She's so fiesty and don't take no shit from nobody.

I would recommend it to other people to read, if only for the humor in it. It's what I would call a 'garbage' book, like when you have your 'garbage' show that you binge over and over again that doesn't have a point to it but you enjoy it nonetheless because you can just turn your brain off while you watch it. It's one of those types of books.
