“This is the lesbian vampire boarding school story I've always needed, but it's smarter, nastier, and more fun than I ever could have dreamed." —Kylie Schachte, author of You're Next
Kat Finn and her mother can barely make ends meet living among humans. Like all vampires, they must drink Hema, an expensive synthetic blood substitute, to survive, as nearly all of humanity has been infected by a virus that’s fatal to vampires. Kat isn’t looking forward to an immortal life of barely scraping by, but when she learns she’s been accepted to the Harcote School, a prestigious prep school that’s secretly vampires-only, she knows her fortune is about to change.
Taylor Sanger has grown up in the wealthy vampire world, but she’s tired of its backward, conservative values—especially when it comes to sexuality, since she’s an out-and-proud lesbian. She only has to suffer through a two more years of Harcote before she’s free. But when she discovers her new roommate is Kat Finn, she’s horrified. Because she and Kat used to be best friends, a long time ago, and it didn’t end well.
When Taylor stumbles upon the dead body of a vampire, and Kat makes a shocking discovery in the school’s archives, the two realize that there are deep secrets at Harcote—secrets that link them to the most powerful figures in Vampirdom and to the synthetic blood they all rely on.

TWISTY MYSTERY: This book combines the dark and magical world of vampires with the equally dark, twisted world of YA thrillers by authors like Karen McManus or Jessica Goodman.
PITCH-PERFECT TEEN VOICE: Sasha's writing is engaging, clever, and absolutely, perfectly teen. From the hilarious insults to the bashful confessions, she nails the YA voice.
QUEER REPRESENTATION: Between Taylor, a proud lesbian; Kat, dubbed a "cishet ally" by her best friends back home but coming to terms with a sexuality that isn't quite so clear-cut; and some major supporting characters that fall under the queer umbrella, this book handles queer identities with nuance and care.
COMPLEX FEMALE RELATIONSHIPS: Kat and Taylor were best friends as children, before a deep betrayal that severed their relationship, and they find themselves unexpectedly grappling with those feelings again as roommates. Plus, Taylor has a complicated, difficult relationship with campus queen bee Evangeline.
