They aren't your typical cast of characters. Β Three queer women born in three different centuries whose lives are on a collision course to intersect. Β How and why? Β They are vampires, two by choice and one who was a victim. Meet Sabine, the most exotic and powerful of them all, perhaps. Β She hails from the sixteenth century. Β She and Charlotte became a couple in 1837. Β What they crave is freedom and for a long time, the relationship is mostly perfect. Β Over time cracks and flaws surface and the relationship changes. Β In order to survive, Charlotte knows what she has to do. Β Her definition of freedom has to change. Β In 2019, we meet Alice who is a student at Harvard. Β She hopes to come out of her shell and recreate herself. Β After a one-night stand, she does change. However, this is not a change she sought.
At this point, I will say that I have never read this genre before and I didn't know what to expect. Β Having said this, after reading BURY OUR BONES IN THE MIDNIGHT SOIL, by V.E. Schwab, I am impressed. Β The author has skillfully crafted a story that combines history, horror and passion. Β Ultimately, this is a love story peppered with intense revenge and obsession. Β Well-plotted and unique, BURY OUR BONES IN THE MIDNIGHT SOIL is an exciting and engrossing story. Β Highly recommended.
