I’m reading it, even knowing spoilers, bc I’m searching for glimmers of OUR Lestat, the one we know and love, I’m searching for little gems of moments that are true to the characters, I’m searching for scenes that could be corrected with fanfic/fanart… there may be little bits that are salvagable… 

Even though I dispute it being MY headcanon, I’m invested in the characters enough that I am intrigued by the crackiness that their author has conjured up for them. Jump the shark/couch? This book has jumped the Empire State Building.
