stapsreadsRe-read, so as to be able to write Eugénie/Louise fic as a Yuletide treat. Neither of them shows up until page 600, but who cares?
On this read, I was mostly struck by how very Romantic it is. Vampires (well, almost). Orientalism. Sex and drugs. Nature. The sea. And also how it is really not a children's book.
It took me most of December to read, which was reading time well spent, if you ask me. This will always be one of my favourites.
