Where Am I?

I could never get through Memnoch the Devil. So I don't expect I'll be reading this new one either.
My favorite books are the first three. After that, I started to lose interest in the books.

That is amusing, I really didn't care for the fist three and fell in love with Blackwood farm and Memnoch.

I used to like Anne Rice.  However, after Memnoch the Devil, I more or less lost interest in the whole series.  It was nothing to do with that book in particular, but Anne Rice kept getting wordier and wordier as time went along.  While I am all for description and elaboration, I personally think there is a point where it is too much.  This is just my thoughts, though, and I would not have anyone agree with me.

On a lighter note, I am glad that she is still producing vampire literature.  My interests just drifted to other categories, such as gothic fantasy (preferably medieval) and trying to keep up with my non-fiction books. 



Sincerely,
