Much of the first half was unbelievably dry. When there was action it was usually interesting, and I do love a brooding, reflective MC, but this is almost too atmospheric at times - though at times that really works? And the last 100 pages also have their moments? 😅🧐 This book is worth it and has some takeaways but it is no picnic. I think I’ll try the next one anyhow, it definitely felt like Lestat had a lot more to say.
