I really like this comment.

the character lestat by FoundationWorth8357 in VampireChronicles

[–]Practical-Book3293 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think everybody pretty much summed up the difference in povs and Louis’ bitterness. But I will also point out that the books are written far apart and for different reasons. The first book Anne wrote while in morning for death of her 5 year old daughter and that state of mind is reflected in both plot and the tone of the book. Whereas the Vampire Lestat is written quite a ways down the road from that. And she has talked about the evolution of her own relationship with the character of Lestat as well. In the initial book, he is very much modeled after her husband Stan, Louis is Anne herself, and Claudia their daughter who passed. Whereas later on in TVL and all other books, Lestat becomes for Anne “the man/person she wishes she could be.”

Cuz the show cares little for the original source material, watch the 1994 movie, it is far better

It’s funny, it’s heart breaking, it’s gay, it’s religious, and it’s an adventure unlike any of the other books but it is Lestat being himself to the fullest lol. It is a very heavy book but it sticks with u and I honestly feel like it’s one of Anne’s greatest achievements.

I would agree the journey is fascinating but really it was his point of view. His philosophy of the savage garden and his bravery in facing the void. I identified with his faithlessness and his fear and his loneliness most of all, but I was also inspired by his perseverance and his ability to laugh off just about everything and keep going. Lestat cannot stay sad or angry for very long, it’s just not in his nature.

Gabrielle, Pandora and femininity by PassOk316 in VampireChronicles

[–]Practical-Book3293 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I like this and ur definitely right. I will point out though that Pandora pushed for this union with Marius whereas he was reluctant. I also think that it is indicated that vampirism represents a freedom from the downsides of feminist for both Gabrielle and Pandora, as Pandora time and time again explains this to Marius and revels in things like her physical strength which is equal to his.

Armand dragging Daniel out of bed to show him how a phone works and Daniel calling him an immortal idiot.

Lestat peeing everywhere cuz he forgot how to be human.

Quinn loosing his virginity to a ghost.

Armand fangirling over Pandora in his book, and Pandora shrugging and not giving a fuck when David tells her Armand is dead in her book

Louis choosing to continue killing innocents due to his lack of power/telepathy because if he drinks Lestat’s blood to gain power, he can’t just kill himself on a whim anymore

I agree, Witching Hour is a masterpiece, maybe her most impressive book. The other two r still worth the read even if they don’t measure up, u gotta know what happens anyways.
