I really enjoyed this, such a fun premise that I have never seen before. I felt engaged the whole way through, even though it was quite long it didn’t drag at all. I loved the book club and all the characters and I really want to be part of the nevermore murder and smutty book club! Can’t wait for the next one

Oh wow! I decided to settle down with a drink and read a few chapters before bed … 3am rolls around and I’m over half way through the book!
Right from the get go the amount of descriptors pulled me in creating the world inside my head and gosh is it one I want too see!! The hot stranger who saves her turns out to be hot AND potentially dangerous?? Sign me up!
I just love how the book follows a more light hearted reading experience whilst also exploring deeper topics through our main characters.
People who enjoy the age old grumpy//sunshine trope would love this book, with the in my opinion even better addition of the grump being a tortured vampire artist who struggles to control himself by making many many “failed” artistic attempts.
And though they are both deeply scarred and flawed characters and while they have great romantic chemistry there is so much that they need to discover about themselves and each other while figuring out their new dynamic.

(Also posted on good reads as the book was far too good not to add there)

The first in a spin off series of the Nevermore Bookshop Mysteries - it is a stand alone and is easily understood without having read that series.

This has a lot of funny moments, a bit of a murder mystery and lots of romantic tension. It bounces back and forth from different points of view, mainly that of Winnie and Alaric, the main characters.

Professional organizer Winnie takes on the preparation of Black Crag castle for a ball for vampires, although she does not know that last part. Alaric has some hoarding tendencies which remind Winnie of her upbringing. With the help of the local book club/coven, they set out to solve the murder of a local man.

It is a fun read for the fall with dark castle, vampire, and magic vibes.

I was given a copy by the publisher via NetGalley (thank you!) and all opinions are my own.

Fangs for Nothing follows Winnie Preston, organizing extraordinaire, and Alaric Valerian, a reclusive vampire lord, on a journey of love, healing, and of course cleaning. The story opens with Winnie coming to the small English town of Argleton just a day too early for her newest job, preparing for a ball held by the one and only Alaric Valerian. After all, Alaric’s centuries of passions have built up quite a collection of items. The story follows the failures and triumphs of Winnie and Alaric along with the meddling of The Nevermore Murder Club and Smutty Book Coven, who are unable to leave a good mystery alone. And when on the night of Winnie’s arrival someone is murdered, the book club certainly cannot let that mystery stand unsolved.

Fangs for Nothing predominately features a more light-hearted and comical reading experience; however, there are some deeper topics explored by our main characters including learning to love again after betrayal, especially when the betrayal has lasted centuries. Readers who love the grumpy sunshine trope will find it well-represented in this story, along with the addition of the grump being a bit of a tortured artist. Overall, I would recommend this book as a fun read, especially for the current fall and spooky season.

Thanks so much to Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for the arc!!

This was such a fun and quick read that also dives into some darker themes. Winnie and Alaric are both flawed and scarred characters. Both have their own baggage that has to be considered before starting a relationship. I did find that the book could have spent a bit longer exploring their lives seperate from each other and both coming to terms with their traumas.

Alas i loved "The Nevermore Murder Club and Smutty Book Coven", i loved all the girls and their different personalities and i can`t wait for more books possibly exploring other characters relationships. I have some theories ... involving some other supernatural creatures ... c ... a fellow vampire (name starting with a) and another vampire (name starting with g) having a second chance romance for the next book?!?! OMG!
