A review by julesadventurezone
Carmilla by Tal Minear, J. Sheridan Le Fanu

mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

I knew this was the lesbian vampire novel but I was still somehow surprised by how gay it was. 
I enjoyed how Laura narrates but is usually a silent listener or observer. No wonder she latches onto Carmilla so easily, that girl is lonely. 
The novel starts off strong then gives a big lore dump and just kind of ends. Could've done a little more there, Sheridan. Maybe even give Laura something to do!

Lovely audio production by the Re:Dracula team!
