Toxic lesbian vampires… need I say more!! This book spans centuries following 3 different POVs and how they all weave together. I listened to the audio and absolutely loved it!

Okay, I LOVED this book. Absolutely adored it from the depths of my soul.
Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil is a book I’ve been dreaming of reading for about 2 and a half years, and it absolutely lives up to expectations - and then smashes them. I loved the short story ‘First Kill’, and have been dying for more of Schwab’s vampires.

VE Schwab’s writing feels different in every book, and I think this may be my favourite of hers. The story is captivating, the characters both loveable and hate-able, just … This delivers on EVERY point. I cannot wait for everyone to read this world, and meet these characters. I wanted this to go on endlessly.

VE Schwab’s writing is intoxicating, and her use of time periods in this book is masterful. I am in love, and I may just read this on a loop forever. The chance to listen to this as an audiobook was GROUNDBREAKING. I’ve never listened to a book after reading it or vice versa (read after listening). The narrator choices for Sabine, Alice and Lottie are perfection, and I am absolutely enamoured with this. I didn’t think anything could top reading Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil … well, listening to it can.

This book is fantastic, and these narrators bring Schwab’s writing to life in a mind-bending, life-altering way. How do I continue on?

(** audiobooks absolutely ARE reading.)
