Rating: Summary: lestat human? Review: I never thought that I would See Lestat do this be mortal again and so out of touch with the world and forgetting what it is like to be human Although I guess being a vampire for a few hundred years will do that to you The ending is great and the warning from Lestat in chapter 32 is excellent I would love to see a movie about this
Rating: Summary: My favorite Ann Rice book of all time...!! Review: This is byfar her best that I've read. Great characters (as always), awesome storyline, and it keeps you enthralled until the very end...!! Excellent...!!
Rating: Summary: Still the Best Review: I marveled at the complexity of this novel. Although I finished in in one and a quarter days, I had to read it again to soak up the details and plots in the novel.
As Lestat thinks it is horrible to be mortal again, I examine my life and compare it to his. In my opinion, I really wish vampires were real and that I could be a vampire. It is kinda pathetic of me, but hey: look at it this way. Right now I have a cold that persists on staying, I can't fly, I need food a lot, and it would just be so amazing to live so long and experience the world anew.
Even at the beginning when Lestat attempts to commit suicide, I knew he really wouldn't actually want to die. He loves himself too much. Hey, I love him also, so how can he resist? He really is irrisistible...*sigh* Sooooooooooo HOT!!!!
This is my third favourite after Blood Canticle and The Queen of the Damned. Anyhow, it was a great novel to be cherished in my heart forever.
Rating: Summary: Another Anne Rice hit! Review: I read this book in 2 days and 1 night. It was extremely interesting and gripping. The whole idea that Lestat could become human again was very fascinating and got me crazy to read it.
I was very pleased, though I had no idea that being human sucks so badly! After reading Lestat's thoughts about all that we do, I kind of took a look at myself and wondered about it too.
Anyway, in this book Lestat pretty much sleeps with whoever he finds interesting for more than a minute. He wants to sleep with David, but David refuses him, though I have no idea why.
Maybe he was ashamed because he was older than Lestat...? Rice still never gave an explanation for it. However, I am glad that someone is still able to refuse the irresistable Lestat.
Lestat goes through a lot of adventures and most of them are not really plesent, but they sure do entertain! And the ending was very inventive and totally unexpected. I enjoyed it immenssly, especially the last part with Lestat and the...*cough*..."new" David ( I don't want to reveal what happens). That made up for them not sleeping together.
Rating: Summary: "The Tale of the Body Thief" steals the show. Review: I just finished reading this book last night; overall I thought that is was an exceptional novel. I find the idea of astral projection to be quite fascinating, although I have serious doubts that it can actually be achieved. I found the character of Raglan James to be thoroughly dispicable. Lestat was...Lestat; I'll never get tired of him or the trouble that he manages to get himself into. Just think if you had been a vampire for two centuries and someone approached you, offering a chance to be a mortal again for several days. What would you do? I think that Anne came up with a very interesting concept for this installment of the Vampire Chronicles. The very last chapter of the book was extremely satisfying. I haven't written
much about the actual plot, because I don't want to ruin anything
for anyone.
Keep up the great writing Anne!
Rating: Summary: Too Much Review: This book goes into too many details at some moments in the book. You start to wonder when will it get to the point. Yet the ending is really exciting
