It has moments of hilarious self-aware meta that are 100% Anne Rice talking about the books she's written, in the guise of Lestat talking about...whatever. It made me laugh.

Dear lord--I love Courtney Milan, but I saw she was coming out with a contemporary (!) and went to her website to check it out...she's also got a story in a RWA anthology coming out next month. The hero? HAS MY LAST NAME. (And also the first name of several of my uncles/cousins). SO WEIRD.
Okay, that is kind of odd.

Probably. It's lovely, though! A really beautiful depiction of that world!
