Queen of the Damned is a fucking AMAZING book so far. I would highly recommend it. You have to read Interview with the Vampire and The Vampire Lestat first though. Interview is really good, but you find out that the point of view it's told from wasn't entirely truthful when you read the other books, and TVL is a chore to read at times because he's constantly falling "in love" with everyone and taking like 20 pages to describe his emotions, BUT gets extremely interesting in about the last half. Queen of the Damned is by far the best yet. Anne Rice has some strange views on what rock is i think, but whatever, get's the message across. I don't care about all the kids who read this and then claim to be vampires. that's just gay. but it doesnt make the books gay. read them. make the sicky go away!!!! *throws a tantrum* you don't understand how much i hate being sick. even if i got to stay home from school being sick wouldnt have been worth it. gregory just ate an entire freaking bag of chips. go ahead and tell me that weight is genetic, mom. you just try it. keeping in mind that he hasn't had 3 kids as far as i'm aware.
