As a person who lives in Romania, this book spoke to my heart. And especially the fact that my all time favourite book is “Dracula” by Bram Stoker. So, I assure you that the myth of Dracula is something very dear and important to me.
A small thing that bothered me in this book was the fact that the characters traveled from Bran Castle, where the Academy is located, to the village Brasov by foot. And they did is so fast, which is impossible because between Bran Castle and Brasov in reality there are 30 kilometers. So it's kind of impossible to go from one place to the other in just 10 minutes, but I ignored this small thing, because otherwise the story couldn't have developed in the way it did.
Unlike the first book, this one surprised me. I was shocked when I found out who the killer was. I was NOT expecting it. That's what makes this book even better than the first one, which I enjoyed a lot.
The story follows Thomas and Audrey Rose in their journey to a forensic medicine academy in Romania. There, they discover a series of murders and they do their best to find out who the killer is.
I fell in love with Audrey Rose's character again and again. She is one of my favourite female characters because she doesn't let the fact that she's a woman living in a man's world drag her down. She is strong and she knows what she wants. She follows her dream, she is a very intelligent woman and she has the best partner she could wish for: Thomas Cresswell.
These two characters have become some of my all time favourites, even if I haven't finished the series yet. Their chemistry is incredible, the way the are made for each other makes me want to cry, because their friendship is so beautiful and it will hopefully turn in to something even more beautiful.
