RIP Anne Rice

I was 14 when I found and read The Vampire Lestat, the perfect age for it, and I swallowed it whole while heavy metal ballads wailed on my radio. I was less fond of everything else she wrote, though, God knows, I enjoyed reading it.

I think she went off the rails with her later work, and her general wankiness was annoying, but I'll always wave my lighter in the air for Lestat. .
