@i-want-my-iwtv and I will be presenting a reading list of classics and contemporary novels, nonfiction, essays, and poetry to read alongside the Vampire Chronicles.

Rather than a list of “read alikes” or books with vaguely similar themes, this will be a selection of works from the cannon that are mentioned or referenced in the series: from Dante to Milton, to the less obvious Swinburne and Baudelaire.
