Reading this book over the Fourth of July is a TRIP. too close to home

Recentering the REAL Marius #shady

I’m still in awe that this is her first book. She really came out swinging

This book is sooo good so far. This woman is what Nara Smith looks like to me (derogatory).

Armand are you ready to make your big debut?

It’s a quick read for sure. Is it good? The jury is out. I wouldn’t get my hopes up

Which is something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve

Marius mentioned by name in tonight’s episode…. Baby he’s coming.

“‘Disturbed her [Catherine]? No! she has disturbed me, night and day, throughout eighteen years — incessantly — remorselessly — till yesternight — and yesternight, I was tranquil. I dreamt I was sleeping the last sleep, by that sleeper, with my heart stopped, and my cheek frozen against hers.’”

Ohhh poor Hareton. Poor Cathy. Poor Linton. No one’s having a good go of things

I’m just soo compelled by everything going on here. Marius loneliness and craving for Avicus’ and Mael’s companionship warring with his need to keep Those Who Must Be Kept hidden.. AND the rich, deeply researched history of Rome. Anne Rice you’ve done it again

“Memory was a curse, yes, he thought, but it was also the greatest gift. Because if you lost memory you lost everything.”

“‘You said I killed you—haunt me, then! The murdered /do/ haunt their murderers. I believe—I know that ghosts /have/ wandered on earth. Be with me always—take any form—drive me mad! only do /not/ leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I
/cannot/ live without my soul!’”

A Marius healing was much needed

“And then I leant over and kissed Lestat and I said to him:
‘I need you so much right now. I need you if only to say farewell to him [Louis].’”

“‘Father, understand me,’ [Claudia] whispered, her face infected with the tenderest expression. ‘I never could find words to tell you truths when I was living. […] In this measureless place I have no use for such curses. […] What is it to me, the love you lavished on me once in a vibrant and feverish world?’”

Unfortunate that it took Rice so long to give Louis another chance in the spotlight, but wow
