Merry Christmas from us at Blood, Books, and Babble!

As a gift from us to you, we wanted to discuss everyone's favorite character (well... our favorite character at least) and start off at the root of it all: Lestat's human life.

We discuss how Lestat's human years shaped him and how it has affected his vampirism, from the abuse he endured at home to his relationship with his mother, Gabrielle.

We will also share our own thoughts on how we think AMC's IWTV writers will tackle TVL and what we want to see/expect to see in upcoming season 3.

Have a very merry Lioncourt... that's not so merry indeed.

Stay tuned for part II of our Vampire Lestat discussion, coming out on January 10th, 2025!

In this weeks episode, we will be breaking down and analyzing the beloved Vampire Chronicles character Louis De Pointe Du Lac. Although Louis is a cherished and well loved character in the Anne Rice community, he is not as innocent as he appears... We explore his pros and cons from the novels and AMC's adaption, while debating if he is actually ethical compared to the other TVC characters... In Anne Rice's world of morally gray characters, what is Louis' greatest flaw?

We also deep dive into our own theories of what we believe AMC's adaptation may have in store for Louis in future seasons!
