thank you πŸ₯Ή this comment made my day/night. your post is full of so many amazing recs! I can't wait to dive in. Anne Rice really did amp up the sexual tension of paranormal creatures and tbh I love what she did and her legacy :D hahaha

My vampire novel is a feminist re-imagining of vampire mythology; it boggles my mind that no one has thought of the fact that we can survive blood donations and half the human population menstruates but vampires /must/ kill to survive...? there's no equilibrium, really...? smh I created a world where vampires live in (secret) symbiotic relationships with humans who protect them from discovery. Blood is such a rich metaphor 🩸
