Queer Fiction Free-for-All Book Bracket Tournament: Round 1D

Book summaries below:

Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice (The Vampire Chronicles)

This is the story of Louis, as told in his own words, of his journey through mortal and immortal life. Louis recounts how he became a vampire at the hands of the radiant and sinister Lestat and how he became indoctrinated, unwillingly, into the vampire way of life. His story ebbs and flows through the streets of New Orleans, defining crucial moments such as his discovery of the exquisite lost young child Claudia, wanting not to hurt but to comfort her with the last breaths of humanity he has inside. Yet, he makes Claudia a vampire, trapping her womanly passion, will, and intelligence inside the body of a small child. Louis and Claudia form a seemingly unbreakable alliance and even "settle down" for a while in the opulent French Quarter. Louis remembers Claudia's struggle to understand herself and the hatred they both have for Lestat that sends them halfway across the world to seek others of their kind. Louis and Claudia are desperate to find somewhere they belong, to find others who understand, and someone who knows what and why they are.

Louis and Claudia travel Europe, eventually coming to Paris and the ragingly successful Theatre des Vampires—a theatre of vampires pretending to be mortals pretending to be vampires. Here they meet the magnetic and ethereal Armand, who brings them into a whole society of vampires. But Louis and Claudia find that finding others like themselves provides no easy answers and in fact presents dangers they scarcely imagined.

Originally begun as a short story, the book took off as Anne wrote it, spinning the tragic and triumphant life experiences of a soul. As well as the struggles of its characters, Interview captures the political and social changes of two continents. The novel also introduces Lestat, Anne's most enduring character, a heady mixture of attraction and revulsion. The book, full of lush description, centers on the themes of immortality, change, loss, sexuality, and power.

Tiger, Tiger by Petra Erika Nordlund

The Eisner-nominated webcomic in glorious print! Don’t miss this swashbuckling graphic novel about daring exploration and adventure.

Ludovica Bonnaire, a pampered Victorian noble, dreams of adventure. Spurred by her desire to learn more about the world outside her sheltered existence, she steals her brother’s identity (along with his ship) and heads out on a journey to find love, excitement, and enough material to write a book about her favorite aquatic creatures, sea sponges. Before long, she realizes life at sea isn’t as simple as the romantic novels made it seem…and there are many sinister things lurking in the depths below.

its difficult to imagine witches having any air control with both their feet stuck together but maybe its similar to how mermaids move in water (working theory)

I love how Remy cherishes Ludo so much.

When he's about to die at the sea it's the memory of his little sister that gives him the strength to keep fighting.

Even in that extra where the cast all vote for the popularity poll, instead of voting for his crush and bestie that voted for him, he votes for her (who votes for honeyfoot, which fair, he deserves family cherishing as well and I adore how he gets along with Ludo).

(I'm Jamis here)

"Yes, despite EVERYTHING she has done to me!!" Is a good summary of the latest chapters.

I wish you could keep gift giving your companions, I feel like that would be so sweet of a detail as an option to help boost your bonds with them instead of giving only one per companion. As for the Romance, it would be so sweet if you gave them another gift but it’s more precious and you can get a kiss and sweet dialogue out of it 🥰 like giving Emmrich’s favorite color of Lilac flowers in a vase, and Emmrich is like “Darling, you remembered…? 🥹”

Or Lucanis, instead of getting the Wyvern knife from the market when he does shopping, you can give it to him as a romantic gift because he likes Wyvern stuff and he just stutters and goes “R-Rook, I…sigh…You’re too good for me 🥺”

i completely agree with you anon!!
