Queen of the Damned (Bound for Schools & Libraries) | Anne Rice

pick

Read as a teenager, rereading as an adult. This one is still great! Not as brooding and moody as the first two. Plot moved along more. Really enjoyed Maharet and Jesse‘s stories. Didn‘t enjoy Daniel‘s part, Armand‘s fledgling and the one who wrote Interview for Louis. Akasha‘s plan to kill most of the male human population to save humans was intense.

The Vampire Lestat | Anne Rice

so-so

This was a re-read for me about 20 years later. Didn‘t like it as much as when I was a teenager. It felt all over the place. Seemed like Rice was backtracking with Lestat‘s character as he seemed very different here and the rest of the series than in Interview with the Vampire. The history of the Theater of the Vampires makes more sense. Relationship with his mom after he makes her a vampire is super weird. Marius‘ story in here was 70 pages.

Memnoch the Devil | Anne Rice

Tonight‘s supper & book. It‘s been 19 years since I last read MEMNOCH THE DEVIL, and I‘m delighted out of my mind because THAT‘S LONG ENOUGH THAT I‘VE FORGOTTEN STUFF! I used to reread this whole series every April, and I thought I‘d have it memorized forever. Yay! Surprises!

I‘m loving it so far, but one thing I do remember is that I always love New York and the art and the ghost, but I zonk out once Memnoch starts talking. We‘ll see.

If you haven‘t gotten a chance to check out this masterpiece, please do yourself the favor. It‘s bloody brilliant!! I‘ve binged seasons 1 & 2 and now I‘m running to finish Lestat‘s books before season 3. Can‘t wait! 🤩🤩 Anne would have loved this. 🥹

LiseWorks Love this series ❤️ 5mo

ElizaMarie I agree! This is such a great series. My husband and I are watching together, so I can't binge it but... I am enjoying it when we get to see it :) 5mo

Revisiting the story before Season 3....and if you haven't done so by now, WATCH INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE, on AMC.
It is simply amazing

Since watching the “Interview with the Vampire” series, I realized that was the only book that I read in the series years ago. I am currently flying through “The Vampire Lestat” and it is fantastic!!!
