#BoutofBooks Day 3 + Challenge: Show Me Your Precious


I did not get much reading done yesterday. Probably 25 pages total. I had an absolutely exhausting Tuesday and ended up going to sleep before 8:00 pm. That NEVER happens! Of course, now it's 3:00 am and I'm wide awake. lol

Today's challenge...Show Me Your Precious


Anne Rice is my favorite author...has been since the late 80s. The Queen of the Damned was the first of her books I read. I had no idea at the time it was part of a series. It dawned on me during (or maybe after) reading it that the book that had been sitting on my mom's bookshelf for years, Interview with the Vampire, was the first book and Queen of the Damned was the third. So, I went back and read Interview and then The Vampire Lestat, and then Queen of the Damned again. Since then, I've read Queen four times and I know I will read it again. It's my precious because it really gets into the origins of the vampires, told with a vivid historical story, and we are introduced to the various ancient vampires, and the mother of them all. Exciting stuff!

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. It means so much.

I apologize for word verification, but as soon as I changed the settings from only users with Google accounts, I started receiving a ton of spam comments...within one hour of changing the settings. The bots are on high alert apparently.

  1. I've read Interview with the Vampire but didn't really get it, I was quite young before YA books were really around. Need to revisit.
