Well this was a fun queer vampire story,
I really enjoyed how much this referenced the original Dracula story and other gothic novels, whilst also being its own new approach to vampire legend.
Loved that the main character was Jonathan and I clocked early on that would probably be significant.
The plot was pretty cool, always enjoy when a book has lots of focus on books and literature. So a storyline with a missing book? I’m sold. I did see quite a lot coming, but wouldn’t say it detracted from my enjoyment. Plus, the end showdown was exciting!!
I will say there were a few eye-roll inducing moments. The whole… I wanted you as soon as I saw you and can’t stay away from you, vampire vibe is a bit cheesy and intense for me. But equally I’m like queer readers deserve to see themselves in this type of story too! Teen me would probably be swooning 🤣
In some ways I think I’d have liked this to be longer. It was kind of slow burn, but I also didn’t feel like Jonathan and Dacian spent that much time together one on one or in person. A lot of dreaming and fantasising but I’d have liked some more actual conversations early on. Dont get me wrong there is some, I’m just greedy I guess.
I’d have also liked a little more of the 80s vibe. There were references, especially music, but somehow I kept forgetting and thinking it was set now.
On the whole though I enjoyed this. I’m actually not a huge vampire fan these days, but this was a fun approach and take on the gothic romance genre.
I loved this entire book! I read it in 1 night because I couldn't put it down, and the little new twist on a classic story was very interesting and fun!
I loved the dark academia vibes in the late 1900s setting.
The mystery of the diary and the murders were pretty spooky and exciting.
I loved the instant connection between Johnathan and Dacian and how it slowly progressed to a sweet romance that made me absolutely swoon!
Dacians' history and Johnathans past were both incredibly heartbreaking, but I loved that they found happiness and a new beginning together.
I wish it was a little longer, so I could have even more of them together, but the ending was super sweet, so I'm happy with it! I'd definitely recommend it for anyone who loves paranormal romance with a bit of mystery and academic vibes.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC :)
Kit Vincent has done it once again… I’m crying. Such a beautiful story and what a great ending. I honestly can’t think of anything else to write because of the tears 🥲
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC in exchange for my honest review!!
I’m a Kit Vincent Stan now. I will read everything they write. This was a super fun book and I enjoyed the characters. This is a perfect blend of grief and trauma with cute and fluffy moments.i said awww and laughed quite a few times. There were also plenty of moments where my heart ached. I was a little concerned in the beginning about it being professor/student but that was even discussed in the story. This being set in the 80s threw me a few times cause I wanted to be like “Google it” or “look it up” and it was hilarious when they were talking about one day being able to read books digitally and having to carry around a computer. I also will read anything with hope vampires. It’s my weakness. This comes out right in time for Halloween season as well
Thank you to NetGalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for approving my very eager request to read an arc of this much anticipated book
“What if I am buried along with those things, and no matter how much I try to dig myself out, to climb up this endless dark tunnel, it still feels like I’m only falling deeper into the darkness?”
“Then it is best to make friends with the shadows, Mr. Evergreen. For if you’re shrouded in darkness so complete, so all consuming, that there’s no telling the skies above from the ground below, then what is the difference between falling and flying?”
Having loved all of Kit Vincent’s books so far, I was so excited when I heard about their upcoming release and looked forward to seeing updates about the writing and editing process on Instagram. I had high expectations for Love Immortal, and without giving any plot away, I can say that it exceeded them easily and I was absolutely captivated by Johnathan and Darcian’s story.
Make sure to look up trigger warnings before reading, but if none of them are going to hinder your enjoyment of the book, then I would highly recommend sinking your teeth into this story
