imaginary_space 's review for:

The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice
4.0
dark emotional sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Ah, Lestat, you beautiful self-centered butterfly. The love! The drama! The yearning! The EDGYNESS! 
I love to hate those characters and Anne's dark gothic atmosphere.

When I first read this decades ago, this book opening up the world of Anne Rice's vampires was what made me stick with the series, even when she stopped hiring editors.
