~The spoiler list~

- The Catholic church is actually full of vampires. Catholicism itself seems to be about vampires.

- Forget every single backstory from any previous book. They are all rewritten with wanton abandon

-

“Fact […] For the first time in history, there was no longer gender inequality.”

said about late 1700’s Venice. This is false on many levels. The entirety of the story proves this point as she and other women are sexually harassed by a multitude of men in Venice. The only instance of this supposed gender equality is that there is cross dressing.

- Caitlin is a homewrecker

- Apparently the vampires in this aren’t forever young, except when they are.

- Caitlin is told about 3 times what to do and where to go to save the world, but she ignores that and pursues Caleb, even though she was told not to because it wouldn’t end well. She forgets this and wonders what her mission is and where she’s supposed to go.

- Because she doesn’t listen to anyone, she is inadvertently the reason why Caleb’s son dies. She is also the reason Rose, her malnourished wolf, dies, and not just because she never feeds her and constantly abandons her in random places without a second thought (but like a video game sidekick, somehow shows up after the cutscene)

- Blake, the other love interest whose name I forgot in the last book, be like:


- Despite the new setting, there are no significant new characters. Everyone who was living in the East Coast of the United States in 2011 was in Italy in the 1700s

- Everyone wants to date Caitlin, including Kyle

- The celebrity cameo in this book is Mozart, who seems to be the only piano player available at a 7 hour long party

- Caitlin discusses how no one has ever bathed in their entire life and probably don’t have baths available to them because of the prehistoric times of the 1700s, and then she takes a bath while living in the 1700s

- She says that she feels bad only for leaving Blake, but not Polly who definitely thinks they’re best friends even though Caitlin honestly couldn’t care less about her

- Caitlin fears explaining to anyone that she came from the future even though time travel is a well-known and accepted aspect of vampire life in this series

- To collect all the infinity stones and save the world, Caitlin has to go even further back in time, where her Waldo of a father is supposedly waiting for her

- Caleb seems to have always hated his wife Sera. What a loving and wonderful man

- He also seems to have forgotten who his wife is, as she's named Samantha (who is the only major character to not appear in this book from the previous books) for about a chapter inexplicably

- The ending is also almost exactly the same as Slave, Warrior, Queen. Caitlin might secretly be Ceres.
