Carmilla is a Gothic novel by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. The story is told by a young woman preyed upon by a female vampire named Carmilla, later discovered to be Mircalla, Countess Karnstein (Carmilla is an anagram of Mircalla). Laura, one of the two central characters, recounts, beginning with her childhood in a "picturesque and solitary" castle in Styria, where she lives with her father, a wealthy English widower retired from service to the Austrian Empire. When she was six, Laura had a vision of a stunning visitor in her bedchamber. She later claims to have been punctured in her breast, although no wound was found. The story is often anthologized and has been adapted many times in film and other media.

however, the narrator sounded bored the entire time and for some reason chapter 17 just atarts the story over. brings it down slightly

Erotic, but...

Good story but the narrator saying the “title and author” of the book at the beginning of each chapter and saying “end of chapter” at the end of each chapter was pretty annoying.

Good book
