I knew turning Alexei would cause so much trouble for Drac, and it is what he deserves, lmao.

Part 3 of A Dowry of Blood has me thinking about how, despite being a vampire, Dracula still uses human tactics to control his brides. There is nothing new or creative in what he is doing.

Side note: A Dowry of Blood is what I imagine is an accurate version of Bella and Edwards relationship in Twilight would be like.

This take on Dracula is refreshing in that he is a predator, not because he is a man, but because he is a man with immortality, time, and desires, which is dangerous in itself.

Constanta, I need you to do yourself and Magdalena a favor and just kill the old man and run off to be lesbians.

Constanta truly is the definition of bi panic. Magdalena really put her head in a spin.

So after reading the first part, I am enthralled with how Gibson writes Dracula to be the manipulative creep he is.

#gothic #haunting #horror #read #booknerd #adowryofblood #bookaddict #vampire #gothic #haunting #horror # #mystery #classics #vampire #stgibson #bridesofdracula #dracula

Girl, he hates when you ask questions and tells you not to make friends with others (humans). Run, Girl. He is toxic.

I have always been interested in Dracula's deception as a man of science, even though he is a supernatural.

#gothic #haunting #horror#mystery #classics #gothichorror #prophecies #read #booknerd #adowryofblood #bookaddict #vampire #gothic #haunting #horror # #mystery #classics #vampire #stgibson

There is something so profound, so brutal, so loving about taking a monster and making him into a man.

We are starting strong with homicide! I am invested.

After a month-long hiatus due to my trip to Japan, I am finally back and starting with reading A Dowry of Blood by S.T. Gibson. After watching Sinners, I am sort of in a vampire mood.

“You don't want to be alive. You want to be in control." Control is antithetical to life. To be alive is to be battered about. To endure and adapt and keep stumbling onward despite it all.”

Also the fact that the Mom threw any asking for money in her face despite she hadn't asked for it in like 6 years. This family is full delusional people.

Also love how this family is okay with a gay son but draws the line at abortions. I know it's unrelated but brings home's the fact that Anna will always be thr black sheep.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

Why I don't want anything to happen to the girls at this point if they get harmed it's Nicole fault.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

So Benny wrote the note I am fucking dumbfounded.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

Okay never mind Christopher might actually be dead.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

I can't believe that Christopher escaped. I ask for so little and recieve nothing.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

Please, I am begging you Mrs.Thorne. Please kill Christopher in this book.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

With the Prom story, I am understanding why Jennifer Thorne titled this book Diavola. Anna is the devil in her family, but not by her own doing, her family aims to mischaracterize her at every step... and Christopher is just an asshole.

#booklover #bookworm #ghosts #diavola #jenniferthorne #horror

I know in my soul that Christopher is 100% a Gay Republican.

#reading #books #horrorbooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #ghosts #diavola #jenniferthorne #horror

Benny really ruined any trust his sister had in him. Talk about a messy and toxic gay.

#reading #books #fantasybooks #booksky #readingaddict #bookish #booklover #bookworm #booksky #diavola #jenniferthorne

Jennifer Thorne has a gift at making the most unlikable characters, like Nicole why are you making your sisters abortion about you?

"Italian grandmothers like children,” Anna said. “Love them, actually. They fatten them up and bake them into bread. It’s a Florentine delicacy.”

~Diavola, Jennifer Thorne

"What a cathedral. Anna’s impulse was to abase herself, to sink to her knees, to kneel right there on the hot paving stones. Her hand had already slid into her bag, scrabbling for charcoal, but Mom grabbed her elbow and wouldn’t let go."

~Diavola, Jennifer Thorne

If christopher perishes I will not be sad. One because he caused this and two because he believee real estate is investment property.
