Absolute serve. Armand is my favorite, so I went into this ready to stan, and let me tell you, Anne ate and left no crumbs. Kudos to Anne!
This book scratches my depravity itch in the best way. While it’s not giving The Girl Next Door, it’s still plenty brutal and twisted when it needs to be. The prose? Chef’s kiss. It’s dark, it’s rich, it’s elegant.
Armand’s story is nothing short of iconic. From start to finish, it’s a compelling and beautifully told journey. And can we talk about the double meaning of his names? Amadeo and Armand? That’s not just writing—it’s peak literature.
I’m holding back because I don’t want to give y’all a full dissertation. Just know this: FIVE STARS, PERIODT.
Oh, and the random lore drop about Lestat going to hell and throwing hands with Memnoch? Anne said, “Here’s some chaos for you, but you gotta read another book to get the tea.”
