“I’m not! I just like to check in on what she’s doing. She’d been writing all of these books that got young people to hang out in graveyards, wear black, and pretend to drink blood and then she “found” your lot and stopped. I just wanted to see that she’s firmly back in our camp.”
BRB, dying a little bit from laughter because I did the same thing. I requested "Blackwood Farm," "Blood Canticle," and "Prince Lestat" on ILL last week, because I think the last VC book I read was "Blood & Gold." I was honestly pretty pissed off after "Merrick" (useless Louis-torture: that did not go over well with me), but I'd always thought the first three books made a brilliant trilogy and kind of wish she'd just stopped there. Anyway, I'm not very far into "Blackwood Farm" and can't decide if Tarquin is intriguing or annoying.

This is one of the sweetest stories to turn up this exchange; your details in the flashbacks are so loving, and there's a very physical, grounded sense to all of this <3
