Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 28%.
The audiobook just wasn’t grabbing my attention, and I couldn’t get into the physical book either. I’ll just have to watch the show even tho I was able to tell some of the changes that were made from the show to the book.

This definitely kept me on my tired because I had no idea who the real culprit was until the end. I just felt like I spent the whole book asking when are we going to get to the point? Who was actually murdered?

My only issue with this book was how long it took for her to get to the confrontation with the Ash witch. The plot twist wasn’t too hard to figure out. I thought this was a cute sapphic, grumpy sunshine romance with a hint of spice. If you liked This Poison Heart, this is very similar but the FMCs are older
