"Cinematic, immersive, heart-pumping, and so freaking coolWe Love the Nightlife is a dizzying thriller with all the delicious, chaotic energy of a night out on thetown. I loved it!"
Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of We Were Never Here
"No one is writing glamorous, razor-tipped novels dripping with as much voice and style as Rachel Koller Croft. If Emerald Fennell, Studio 54, and The Lost Boys had an undead baby, it would be We Love the Nightlife, a story of toxic friendship among disco-loving vampires thats more fun to binge than a bottle of champagne. Crofts books are the ultimate good time not only because of her clever twists or bitingly honest depictions of womens social lives, but because, like the best girls girl, they radiate a genuine love of women in all their fangs, finery, and fierceness. What a breath of fresh air."
Ashley Winstead, author of Midnight is the Darkest Hour
"We Love The Nightlife is a thrilling and bitingly sharp read from the very first needle drop. Croft has crafted a story that is both cinematic and affecting with unforgettable characters who may have a taste for blood but are still grappling with very human issues of identity and loss. An ode to disco and toxic friendships, this book is a truly wild ride."
Ella Berman, author of Before We Were Innocent
"Put on your dancing shoes, this is the book equivalent of a wild night out. A glamorous, thrilling page-turner as effervescent as a French 75, that sinks its fangs into the complex power dynamic between two friends who both want to be the life of the party. Clever, inventive, and wickedly fun."
