Super interesting to read a huge classic of Gothic literature. The depictions of Carmilla's obsessive sapphic desire for Laura was extremely interesting, like her poetic declarations of Laura dying for her were like, peak vibes. Unfortunately there isn't much of that and it felt like Laura was too passive in the end.
