Title: The Blood Confession

Author: Alisa Libby

Erzebet Bizecka, a Hungarian countess, has been imprisoned in a tower room of her castle, awaiting a sentence from a trial she is not allowed to attend. Her crime? The gruesome murders of her young servant girls. While trapped in the tower, Erzebet writes a confession of the horrendous things she has done and how she became a monster in her search for immortality. In the beginning, Erzebet was born under an unlucky star and given a curse; she would either die young, or she would live forever. At an early age, she became obsessed with the prophecy, and was willing to seek out any means that would preserve her emerging beauty for eternity. Erzebet started out as a gilded noble, but her quest for life soon turned her cold and cruel. Eventually, at the peak of her fears, a dark stranger told Erzebet that she could become immortal through the blood of young women. Initially frightened of such evil deeds, Erzebet was rather reluctant to bleed her servant girls, but it wasn't long before she gained a taste for it, and began to stain her history crimson...

I picked this book up because it was based on Erzabet Bathory.

I finished this book because it got more and more intense toward the end.

I'd give this book to anyone who rooted for the evil queen in Snow White.
