I’m the type who always needs to know and always starts the book looking at the last page. :D As a result few times I was crying while reading the whole book because I knew that e.g. main character dies in the end.

I know that feel. I used to do that. I am just not going to do it for this book, just to try it the other way! 

We all know Lestat lives, bc there are 2-3 more books planned to follow this one. 

But what does happen is so cracky… siiigh… 

I’ve seen so much about the book on my dash! I’m so desperate to know; is it as good as the others? I’m so afraid of a “flop” novel. I don’t believe Anne Rice has ever written a “flop”, but it has been eleven years since Blood Canticle. Do you think it’s good so far?

I will answer this later… I haven’t had much chance to read it other than to read the spoilers I’ve seen around here (and from friends who I asked for spoilage from!) 

From what I know so far, it is one of the crackiest books in the Vampire Crackicles ;A;

PERFECTION

Overheard at Prince Lestat Booksigning of 10/28/14 (1/?)

Someone asked AR:

“Anne, has Vicky (Victoria Wilson, AR’s editor of 40+yrs) ever cut, or asked you to cut, a sex scene from any of your books?”

The answer was an immediate “NO.”

Vicky said: “Her sex scenes… I’m reading them going, ‘Oh Anne, are we going there? We are? Oh god.’ and then I turn the page and it gets so much more intense even…. and that’s what great writing is, it takes you on a journey you might not have planned on, but enjoyed.”

Anne Rice booksigning tonight! More of a report to follow. Nothing crazy happened, no vision seen nor secrets learned that would damn or save your souls. 

There was a dude doing bodypaint outside, unrelated to the event, but certainly… was popular amongst the fans waiting outside… for some reason… hmmm… 

[Take note, liquorandptsdvarietyshow, Francis Durand has a signed copy! Is that meta in some way? hmmmm…]
