Taltos (Lives of the Mayfair Witches, #3)

Taltos | Anne Rice

so-so

Finished the trilogy. Love it when I first read it. Didn‘t hold up. At all.

Soubhiville That‘s too bad. I‘ve wondered if the Vampire Chronicles would. They were a big favorite of mine in the 90s. 4mo

DGRachel I remember being so mad that she wrote a sequel The Witching Hour (I was over series and just wanted stand alone novels) that I absolutely refused to read any others in the series. 😂 4mo

Shemac77 I‘m curious about the vampire chronicles as well. I feel like they hold up better but I also thought this would hold up but….. @Soubhiville 4mo

Shemac77 I think your decision was the best idea! @DGRachel 4mo

#WeRemember Day 18: More than the vampire chronicles, I loved #AnneRice‘s Mayfair Witches more when I was in my early 20s. Gosh. Those were the days.

The truth is, laughter always sounds more perfect than weeping. Laughter flows in a violent riff and is effortlessly melodic. Weeping is often fought, choked, half strangled, or surrendered to with humiliation.

Yes, yes, YES!

The first two books in the Mayfair Witches series were almost perfect, but this one is the real deal. I could not stop reading/listening... I loved the witches (Mona and Mary Jane are fantastic characters), the peek inside the Talamasca, Rowan & Michael together again. I was slightly obsessed with Ashlar and the history of the Taltos. 😍 The story didn‘t quit, the writing was on point, and that ending! Omg 🥺

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

RavenLovelyReads That‘s a great series!! 📚 6y

needleminding I've been on the fence about reading this series (I have series commitment issues 😆) but after reading your review I'm feeling like I need to just saddle up and do it. 6y

sprainedbrain @jaimeisbionic These books are not without their problems, but overall very enjoyable. I want to say it‘s only 3 books, but they are sooooo long. 😂 6y

#NoFemmeber Day 1: The Mayfair Witches has the all #AmericanHorror Southern gothic vintage vibe to it that I devoured in my 20s. I love this series more than Anne Rice‘s Vampire Chronicles.

Cinfhen, Billypar

CampbellTaraL I did the same, and agree. The Mayfair witches series is dark and twisted, not that The Vampire Chronicles isn't, but the former goes several levels deeper. It makes you question a lot of assumptions about a lot of things, especially those having to do with family and lineage. 6y

Billypar Ooh....good to know- I always wondered if the vampire series had any competition from all the other Rice storylines. 6y

WhatThePuck Agreed! 6y

#riotgrams #nakedhardcovers day 3 make up for naked hardcovers!

RadicalReader @Taulara do you prefer books with or without covers that come around the book? (edited) 7y

Taulara @RadicalReader it depends on the book actually. Haha. Sometimes the cover sucks me in. But if it‘s something I know I‘ll want to read and is an older book esp, I love without the cover. It gives it a more well loved vibe. 7y

My three favorite witch (and other creature) books for #halloween and #scaretober reading! In my opinion, the second of the series, Taltos, is the creepiest. Happy hauntings all! 👻🕸😈🎃

#bookmail #witchlit

BarbaraTheBibliophage I just ordered Taltos this week because somehow I had the other two from the series but not the second. They're happy (in a creepy, gruesome horror way) to be together again! 8y

Dragon Mayfair Witches so convoluted , so interesting 👻 8y

Coleen The Witching Hour was my first ever audiobook. I was driving my boss' car for work & it happened to be in there so I popped it in. I was totally consumed from that point on. It was my favorite of the series, but that series is one I really need to re-read. 8y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Colleen Great story! I listened to Taltos as audio at first and had to stop because it was too intense to hear it. Took me years to listen to horror again! 👻 8y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Dragon I feel a series reread coming on! 8y

Hobbinol ❤️the Mayfair witches! 8y
