Close enough. Welcome back Louis and lestat

V.E. Schwab does not miss!! I love vampires and I love toxic women (stories about them anyway) and I love books spanning across time, and the mini stories that come with it. I especially loved the section in Venice with Mateo and Alessandro. I love me some angst!!! No one mention how this took me like 3 months to read. I still loved it

Gorgeous writing and complex characters. The ending felt rushed otherwise this would be a solid 5 stars.
