I am a fan of Anne Rice's work. I've fallen in and out of love with Lestat more times than I can count. For some reason or another I never could get into the witching hour/ Mayfair series (the book the show is based on). I was excited for this show bc I watched the recent Interview adaptation and even though it wasn't 100% loyal to the book I really enjoyed the series. Mayfair was an opportunity for me to finally get stuck in to the world of the witches. I rather enjoyed it. I am not a huge fan of Alexandra dadario. I'm not sure why but I always find her acting a bit meh. However I found myself sucked in. I now am excited to read the novel for the first time. I understand all those who love the books and bc of that can't get into the books. But it's worth the watch.
