Now im reading the second book, The Blood Candticle. No thesis ideas have really popped out at me, because my thesis willsomehow be based off her writitng of different themes, kinda. the three different books by her that i am reading are: witch, vampire, and gory fantasy. So i do know that my paper topic will have something to do with what about her writing carries through in the diffrent themes she writes about... i haven't quite figured that out yet.. i may need help developing that.
As far as updating what i've read since last post.
So, a little behind on my reading because i couldnt find the book, i've read 100 pages since yesterday of my 2nd. Now the famous character lestat is narrating the book and in the first 50 pages he has already mentioned his yearning to become a saint, but contradicts himself by turning a young woman into a vampire. Lestat, the wackiest, most addicting charecter i've ever read about is what i love most about anne's writing. Of all her writing, the most insane, random, wild character draws me in; grabs. Something about his free spirited style brings something that i can relate to, and if not, enjoy reading.
Here's a bit of Lestat's narrating style:
"..turned the lock on Quinn's door and entered.
Entered? Why not went in? That's the artificial quaintness that has to go. You see my point? Matter a fact, I barreled into the room, if you must know."
