Thursday, November 13, 2008. Twenty years ago today, the number one book on the New York Times fiction best seller list was Anne Rice's The Queen of the Damned. I had been looking forward to reading this book a lot, but when I did, I couldn't finish it. I talk about why I was looking forward to the third book in the Chronicles of the Vampires, and why I put it down after less than fifty pages.
