I read Kiran Milwood Hargrave's adult fiction book, The Mercies, last year, and really enjoyed it. Someone told me she had written a YA book about the "Bride's of Dracula" that was also really good, and despite YA really not being my thing, I saw it in the library and thought why not. 

It is a great idea, and it is really well written, but like all the YA I've read, it just left me wanting so much more. Obviously I'm not the target audience, so I'm not going to criticise it too much, but everything felt very surface level, nothing went too deep, and while I was invested in the characters, it just didn't make me feel anything. Which again, I find happens with 99% of the very few YA books I have read. I can completely understand the higher ratings this gets from others, and it's not a huge surprise that the author went on to write a really very good adult book after this. I would actually really love to read this story again, but as an adult fiction. As it is, it's a solid 3 for me, would definitely recommend to anyone who does read and enjoy YA.
