Charlotte (184 KP) rated Diary of a Contemporary Woman in Books
Jun 29, 2021
This is a purely adult read, not just because of some fun sex scenes, but from a few sensitive topics being raised... Spoiler : drug addiction (not Angelique!) and an assault.
I was hooked from the very first page. I really like Angelique, being inside her head is fun and interesting. She has an intoxicating confidence about her and knows how to make the most of, and enjoy, life. I also like how this isn't written like a diary, more like having a chat with a friend, so feels more natural and flows better.
Angelique is a bit of an inspiration, she knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go for it.
I can't believe we've been left with, not a cliffhanger as such, but a few loose ends....that grabbed me.....I need more!!! I need to know how things turn out. So with that in mind, I think I'd like it to be a bit longer or fingers crossed there's a sequel....... especially as the clear winner of douche bag of the year needs to have a good bit of comeuppance!!

Awix (3310 KP) rated Interview with the Vampire (1994) in Movies
Aug 8, 2020
Just a bit too artfully amoral and self-indulgent for my tastes; the gay subtext is undeniably present but you can tell Pitt and Cruise are doing their best to stamp it into the carpet (I mentioned this in a review of the novel once and someone said 'This book isn't about gay people! It's about vampires!', which I thought was rather sweet). Looks good and has some decent performances, but makes being a vampire look very boring. On the other hand, very clearly the chief inspiration for What We Do In the Shadows (both movie and TV show), although not nearly as entertaining.
