I blame her books for not finishing Crime and Punishment over Christmas vacation my senior year of high school. I have a hard time writing about an Anne Rice book without sharing details of my ongoing relationship with her books. This is an odd spot for her to be, but I’d rather see her riding Stephenie Meyer’s coattails and writing urban fantasy again than continuing to write about Jesus and guardian angels (but I read those books too. So in this book, rather than being a pioneer, Anne Rice finds herself jumping on the werewolf bandwagon. I could continue to list vampires in popular culture, but you probably get my point. If it weren’t for Anne Rice, there would be no Twilight or Vampire Diaries or True Blood. In fact, I spent a significant portion of my senior year of high school reading Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles rather than several of the books I was supposed to be reading for AP English.
Anne Rice rises again! I freely admit that I love her.
