lfrisbee 's review for:

The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice
3.0
dark emotional reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

this is a good book, better than interview, but I think it would have benefited from less Marius exposition and more action; the beginnings with human Lestat and the epilogue with the concert were the best parts because they moved quickly and were engaging. I think this book suffers from too much philosophical waxing, just like the first one. that said, I like lestat, Armand is still my precious angel gremlin, and I am excited to read QOTD, also can I just say FUCK MARIUS!!!
