Honestly my favorite book of all time. Lost count of how many readings! Just shelve any apprehensions and read it! You‘ll have a new hero

Screenshot from Books in the Freezer insta-reel. A hilarious annotation inspired by if Lestat was written during GRWM popularity.
Annotation reads: Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel.

#doublespin done! Another reread of the vampire chronicles and I enjoyed this! A lot of reviews mention it being rambly but I always quite enjoy Anne Rice‘s little philosophical diversions… and I bloody love Lestat and how much he loves himself 😆

This also fits into #promptmaze as a dubious ‘glow-up‘ (body swapping!) - could also have been categorised as make up or break up honestly but glow up felt most appropriate!

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3mo
Emilymdxn I just finished rereading interview with the vampire I really want to do the whole series now! 3mo
bekakins @Emilymdxn I am re-reading them (plus the Mayfair Witches) extremely slowly after having interview as a team read in Scarathlon 2022! I find I can‘t read them in quick succession as they‘re so dense but really enjoying dipping back into them as an adult (I was OBSESSED as a teen!) 3mo

I can always rely on Rice for an immersive experience. This one is a delight that I never wanted to put down. Be mindful of trigger warnings here though.

#scarathlon reading plans out the window as soon as I came across The Queen of the Damned on tv. I just couldn‘t turn it off. Definitely calling for a reread!

TheQuietQuill I love this movie 🎥🐈‍⬛ Maybe I‘ll have to rewatch it too 😂 6mo
Read-y_Picker @TheQuietQuill Honestly It just brings back so many memories! It's by far my favourite book of the series (that I've read so far). I'm still peeved that Jon Davis didn't get to release his versions of the songs on the soundtrack... It's just not the same.

#TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #Scarathlon #EarlyBirdPoints #TBW list! @FlynnDewey

Queen of the Damned - a movie based off a book! Bonus points, I also want to try out that (not pictured here) new Interview w/ Vampire TV series.
I am excited to revisit some classics this year, plus a few I am seeing on Netflix and Hulu that are new. We Have A Ghost look hilarious and perfect to get into that Halloween mood.

bthegood looks good - 6mo
StayCurious Some fun choices! 6mo
FlynnDewey I went through Buffy and Angel a couple years ago. Glad I have the DVDs. The remasters on Disney+ are...well, not great lol. 6mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @FlynnDewey I love Buffy and it has been years since I have watched it. I am a complete Spike fan. So I will probably bounce around and just watch his episodes 6mo

The Vampire Lestat | Anne Rice

It's 8AM and I'm thinking about A “fun“ story from college.

It was my first Lit. Course and the Prof. Was very pressed when I was reading this book (she thought it was trashy) that she gave me a bunch of adult fiction that I ended up giving away. Titles included the Kite Runner and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. There was not a single book there that kept my attention.

Moral of the story: let people read whatever they want. They know better.

Doppoetry This was outside of classes too, to make things worse. It really felt like she just picked the most popular books at the time, disregarding the fact that I was not interested in reading that type of fiction to begin with. (I'm not saying those books have no literary value)

I'm sad I didn't have the confidence or courage to tell her to shove it for wasting my time. Categorizing good and bad by popularity rather than content.

Doppoetry Some people are well meaning but their biases prevent them from letting others enjoy certain novels that they deem to have no literary value. Some books don't particularly need to have literary value to be enjoyable. Let people read what they want, and mind your business. One day I will go back to The Vampire Lestat in spite of it all. 7mo
