Basically the way it's written is kinda hard to follow. There's no chapters or breaks within the book besides being divided into 4 parts. The focus is much more on the morality behind vampirism, so it's MOSTLY character driven in that way although there is some plot.

I don't know how Anne Rice made such a pathetic, wet noodle of man deliver some of theee most floor shaterring observations ever known to man, but she fucking did it!!! Every time Louis starts to talk about evil I sit my ass down and listen to him.
But also Louis is so so lame. The first man to ever be baby trapped by another man, and he just keeps failing upwards. C'mon Louis! Eat some people! Fuck the blonde bitch! Adopt some more demonic children! I'm sure it'll all work out in the end.
This book is a beautiful classic and everyone who's a fan of horror should read it because Louis' capture (and the entire Paris arc) in the end gave me anxiety. Also Anne Rice's vampires are super cool and evil when they aren't crying about how catholic they are. Were.
