At first, I enjoyed Silvia Moreno-Garcia's Certain Dark Things. Excellent descriptions of Mexico City's underbelly. It's set in a world where different vampire lines emerged, so vampires are different breeds with different characteristics and abilities. That's so interesting and I can see her doing a lot with it. The characters of Atl and Domingo are engaging and interesting. 

But the antagonist, Nick, a Necro vampire who's little more than a stupid bully, about half-way through the novel, rips open a blood bag and dumps the blood on himself. The story lost me there. I
 won't be finishing it.
