Good vampire story

I liked this short book a lot. I was looking for something different (still am) and was intrigued by the cover of this and decided to read it without reading the blurb. The guy on the cover sold me on it and that it was a vampire book made it even better. I was long overdue for a good vampire trope.

Emma is a book conservator for a museum and is on a job of doing some sort of cataloging of some medieval soldiers or something when her coworker is handed a diary from that same era and thinks it's fake. Emma wants to check it out. She has to do it in her free time because her boss doesn't care about it, either. She interprets it and posts her findings on her blog.

Meanwhile, a mystery man comes into her life who turns out to be much more than just a mere hot guy. To say anymore would mean spoilers and I don't want to ruin this for anybody else.

This was written in first person point of view, was interesting, entertaining, and made me want more. No cliffhangers, thank God, but I will probably read the rest of the series.

Deliciously Chilling

The novella: less commitment than a full novel but more developed and satisfying than a short story. I've long thought it the ideal genre for the Kindle generation. So, I was excited to stumble across this one and was sufficiently intrigued by it's paranormal promise to buy it .

And I'm glad I did because it's a terrific read.

The author brings the novella bang up-to-date by structuring it as a blog. But soon we are a listening to two distinct voices. We follow chatty, optimistic Emma, a museum conservationist, as she translates from the Latin, an obscure 16th century diary.

While the voice of the diarist - a man only identified as N.C. - is both despairing and menacing as his story takes us to a very dark place.

The textural and tonal contrasts between these two are deftly handled and so rewarding for the reader.

The final twist is deliciously chilling.

Good story

This was a really good story and I enjoyed reading it! The characters are well developed (my pet peeve!) and interesting. The story world was interesting and believable. The writing flowed smoothly along and kept me engrossed in the story. I definitely recommend it!

I received a free copy of this book via StoryOrigin and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Dracula

3.75 stars, this book is written in the style of diary entry a la Dracula. As this is short vampire story it harkens back to the granddaddy of vampires but with its own twists.
