mrs. rice ma'am why were you so so so determined to be as racist as you could possibly be at any point? you made the egyptians white. they're white. ma'am they're white. you can't- that's not--

okay whatever. fine! whatever. i think lestat is the worst man on earth and i think i would do anything for him anyway. this book was somehow worse than iwtv and better? ms. rice made me make me make a face like a baby tasting its first lemon like, once very 7 minutes in the first half of the book and then as soon as i had forgotten about the whole thing where lestat wanted to fuck his mom she sucker punched me one more time in the end for good measure. why were the egyptians white btw

Wanted to like it more than I did. Unfortunately something just wasn't clicking.

On the other hand, Lestat is a pretty fun character to follow and I was a bit more invested in what he was doing in his immortal life, Gabrielle (leaving out the weirdness of her relationship with Lestat) was definitely my favorite character from the 2 books I read. Really wanted to see more of her in particular.

And again, some passages had such a fever dream quality to them same as the first book. I'm unclear on how I feel about it yet (a bit positive maybe).
