5.0

There were so many fantastic and visceral components to this book that even though it was a bit lackluster as a composite whole, I have to give it 5 stars. I think the framing device of it being Lestat's autobiography falls short of its intended goal, as it goes underutilized to truly justify the callback to Interview. But, it's a very intense, emotional book although I'd urge readers to be mindful of the trigger warnings.
