The Shoutbox
I read Exit To Eden long before the terrible movie. I should go back and read that too.
I should go back and reread Belinda and the 3 Sleeping Beauty books.

Belinda is A bit disturbing. A 16 yr old girl, whose parents were porn stars, and her father was gay at that, having a sexual relationship with a 40 something guy.

Only fault I find with Queen of the Damned is Lena Olin's character, Maharet , was a twin and she had no twin sister in the film.

I really liked the actors they had playing David, Jessie and Marius, who is my favorite character from the books.
I read the book as well, before watching it when I was still a kid. Didn’t care for the movie too much, but I don’t recall how I felt about the book.
My first book of the Chronicles was Marius' story, then Pandora, Armand and Merrick. Then I read Queen and Interview, so it may be why I like the other character s more.
Ah, you guys are making me realize I have to get back to these books. I had switched over to her Mayfair Witches books but haven't touched one of her books in ages now. Time to go back!

I like the Lestat in the tv series.
Is that series streaming anywhere?

It was on Netflix I think. The Mayfair Witches was there.

I thought it was a terribly pretentious and overrated movie

I haven’t seen that in about twenty years, but remember not liking it, either. It’s sort of a bit trashy. It’s based on Anne Rice, isn’t it?

I like subtler, deeper vampire stuff like ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’ and the recent ‘Bones and All’ (couldn’t remember that title but knew Mark Rylance was in it, so had ti dig through filmography).

Yes, its Anne Rice. I started reading her erotic novels first, then the Vampire Chronicles and ended with Out of Egypt.

Blood and Gold was my favorite out of the Vampires and Belinda was my favorite of the Erotica. The Sleeping Beauty trilogy was a good read as well.
