I actually liked this book more than the first one! I feel like that's always a good sign, when an authors'  books just keep getting better it makes me so excited to read them. I think I liked this one more because it really expanded on the world building, and I just really felt engaged with the premise and writing a lot more. I loved how organic Clem and Justin's' relationship was, it was a slow burn of them getting to know each other and slow start to trust. I was afraid when reading that there was going to be an easy fix for the pain Justin faced, often times books like to just have a magical cure for that kind of thing. As sad as it was, I am glad it showed how realistic the struggle is that people go through in regards to that situation. Him finally resting and even using a scooter shows his acceptance that he needs to give his body more space to rest and relax.
I am eager to see more of the lore now, Justin have the spurs under his skin was a really cool concept, and I am eager to see what other inhumans there are.
Favorite Parts: chronic pain rep, queer community donating for vampires, the salt & pepper collection
I really loved Clementine so much and I felt he was so relatable as a character. How he views relationships, and all of his little "quirks" are things that I also experience. So you can imagine how I felt when I realised why I found him so relatable with the reveal in the last chapter. It's not something I've talked about on my tiktok, (and I am truly only mentioning this now because these reviews really only get read by me, I hope.) but I am actually halfway through getting an "official" ASD diagnosis. I've finally realized I need more help and resources, and I need to accept support. It is somewhat a bittersweet feeling to see a character I relate to so heavily in a book and then find out why that is.
I do think the only bit in this book that fell a bit short is everything in regards to the Dr. Blood and the pharmaceutical company. I do hope we see those characters and companies better fleshed out and given more of a dimension other then just being hateful and discriminatory for no reason. 
I really enjoyed this book, and definitely recommend if you are looking for a queer vampire story with great disability rep!
