Thank you NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this gifted copy!
I loved this book and how it was written. I am obsessed with podcasts and when half the chapters are written in that format it gave me the full body chills! IYKYK. The cat and mouse trope in thriller form was addictive. The book is fast paced and though I feel like I should’ve predicted that last twist, I did not. My jaw hit the floor. The FMC was not 100% likeable but I liked that she was hard to like. Her relationship with her father was also difficult for me to get behind but they both were grieving so I took that into consideration. Overall, top notch thriller!

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for this eARC!
I love a good vampires and werewolves rivalry book. Lightfall is a slow burn in a whole new world. I got Underground vibes at the beginning. The story is fairly slow paced but there are no missing details. The characters are unique in my opinion but the story line fell a little flat for me. It took me a little longer than I expected to read this book but overall I enjoyed it. Slow burn is just very hard for me.
