About this listen

Gothic, intoxicating, feminist, darkly provoking and deeply romantic - this is the breathtakingly imagined untold story of the brides of Dracula, by bestselling author Kiran Millwood Hargrave in her much-anticipated YA debut.

They say the thirst of blood is like a madness - they must sate it. Even with their own kin.

On the eve of her divining, the day she'll discover her fate, seventeen-year-old Lil and her twin sister Kizzy are captured and enslaved by the cruel Boyar Valcar, taken far away from their beloved traveller community.

Forced to work in the harsh and unwelcoming castle kitchens, Lil is comforted when she meets Mira, a fellow slave who she feels drawn to in a way she doesn't understand. But she also learns about the Dragon, a mysterious and terrifying figure of myth and legend who takes girls as gifts.

They may not have had their divining day, but the girls will still discover their fate...

I listened to this in one sitting I enjoyed every minute of it. It’s not a side you see to the legendary tale that is Dracula and it was nice to see the “brides” portrayed as something more than love slaves.
Loved it.

Highly enjoyed

This book was beautiful. It was so heartwarming and yet so sad, the love for a sister that transcends a human soul. The story it’s self was elegant, written as if Lil wasn’t our main character even though it centred around her, which I loved. But my favourite part would have to be the whirlwind romance… The narration was amazing and full of emotions. I found the law of their would very intriguing and would love to find out more . On the whole the book made me feel everything all at once and I would recommend it.

Slow burning. The ending was pretty good but it was forever getting there. Its like the author had sudden improvement in their writing at the very end.
