I'm confused by the 5 star reviews. There are so many! I feel like I read a completely different book than everyone else. I so very rarely give a book one star. I can usually find something that I like or somehow see how others would enjoy it, but not so much with this one. I also realize how much effort an author puts into their work and it hurts to give one star, even though the one star on Goodreads literally just means "I didn't like it." Which is the truth. 
 To me, this was not fast paced or edge of your seat at all. It's bogged down by very lengthy details about the reasons and workings of things. I kept finding myself distracted by the word choices. I think they were chosen to make the MC seem overly logical or calculating, but her actions are nothing like her thoughts. Also the term "frontal lobe" is used so many times and there are "pregnant doors" and the smell "of coppery, slit-throat death." Oh and all the alteration to the point of distraction. The writing style was just not for me. By 25% I gave up trying to be engrossed and started skimming. 
 The whodunit was painfully obvious: (view spoiler)[Perhaps this group of Dracula-killer descendants should have picked up a copy of the book. (hide spoiler)] 
 There were definitely some creepy moments that lived up to that amazing cover, but they were buried in a sea of information. At the same time, A LOT of other reviewers absolutely loved it so take this with a grain of salt. 
 Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.
