More of 3.5 stars, but not an option.

I quite enjoyed this one, finding the blend of “excerpts” of Lincoln's journals along with the “historical” prose to be an effective manner of telling the story. It was an interesting exercise to couch so much of Lincoln's life in the terms of vampiric action and manipulation.

While the book is never really exciting, save for brief moments here and there, it is interesting. Not a must read, but an entertaining alternate history book with a satisfying, though not surprising at all, twist at the end.
