She Made Herself A Monster

*She Made Herself a Monster* by Yana is a dark, feminist vampire novel set in a cursed village where fear has started to curdle into violence. If you like gothic horror with sharp edges, messy alliances, and a heroine who refuses to stay in her assigned role, this one sinks its teeth in early.

Vampire hunter Yana rides into Koprivci offering deliverance, just as panic grips the town: carcasses appear in the square, and strange signs turn neighbours against each other. The locals already have a scapegoat—Anka, marked by tragedy since birth and now pushed towards a marriage she dreads. As suspicion hardens into certainty, Yana and Anka strike an uneasy bargain that could save them both… or unleash something far worse.

Perfect for readers of atmospheric fantasy, queer-leaning tension, and folklore-soaked village settings.

Add it to your shelf and step into Koprivci—if you dare.
