Anne Rice es conocida por convertir la figura del vampiro en un ser con características humanas, una criatura existencialista, emocional y con muchos conflictos internos. Sin embargo, sin tomar en cuenta el impacto de Entrevista con el Vampiro en la cultura pop, ¿este libro se sostiene por sí solo? Posiblemente no. 

No es una obra maestra, pero tiene sus puntos positivos. Es rápido y fácil de leer, el ritmo nunca cambia y no hay descripciones largas ni relleno. Aún así, esperaba más. Tal vez un poco más de profundidad en la relación de Louis y Lestat, y que Rice explorara el erotismo, el odio y el deseo entre ambos. Claudia, la representación de la represión sexual, es para mí la mejor parte de esta historia. 

Entretenido en ciertos momentos, pero flaquea en muchos otros

So first off, with how often Louis talked about breasts, I think the lad just needed to get laid and he wouldn't have been so up tight. 2nd, I'm glad I listened to this book rather than read it! Anyway the movie is my all time favorite and I only just got around to reading this book, I was so surprised to see just how different the book and movie are.

i got infinitely more enjoyment from having my boyfriend spoil the ending of this book for me than i had actually reading any of this book.

I got halfway through this book before deciding I couldn't stomach it. The writing is really beautiful and the plot is interesting but the relationship between Claudia and Louis is just too upsetting and gross for me (I understand this is all intentional), so I have to say... this will be a DNF. I am planning on picking up the next one to try, so that Louis is out of the picture.

Book review of Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice. 3 out of 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️.

Cannot fixate on the book enough because the movie and the terrible casting clouds my mind. I wish I had the joy of reading the book first. Anne portrays the characters as unlikesble, whiny. She does a good job in maintaining that. 

The movie was exponentially different than the book. Anne does such a better job in portraying the emotions by the vampires. My honey tells me that the series in itself is amazing. I can’t wait to experience that for myself. 

“…And for the first time I feel everything for you, feel the sorrow of your loss as if I never before knew feeling…”
