Just read ozfille's in-depth review of Blood Canticle.

A badly-written book is one thing-- the author delivering sneering rants to her readers via a fictional character is quite another. It reduces literature to nothing more than a forum for her self-important rants. The fans don't like your last book? Deal with it. Either change your writing style; listen; or carry on regardless. Don't deliver insulting rants and haughty proclamations that your audience is too stupid to 'understand' your work.

Silly bloody woman.

She's such a weird woman.

I mean, my gawd, how self-worshiping do you have to be to disregard the fact that your fans are the things that keep your paychecks coming in and that, without them, you're nothing?

I can't stand her as a person. lol She's boring and washed out.

*gasp* Watch, I'll get sued for that.

Oi

She's the reason why I can't get into the Chronicles. Every time I start to read "The Vampire Lestat" I get all fed up and have to put it down... just because I see a little Anne running around causing pandemonium.

And, funny, she's her own little version of a blood sucker, isn't she? *kicks her again*

I think I need to psyche myself up to read Karen's review. So much of what I've heard about BC is so terrible, the thought of an in-depth review is quite frightening really.

I remember a post on the boards a few months back with a preview of the book and some people thought it was a parody, it was so horrible, with Lestat ranting on about his fans and how they hated Memnoch. WTF? I mean, really. Anne. Get a grip.

Argh!

BTW, have you read Palahniuk's latest? Diary or something, I think it's called. I keep meaning to and then never getting to a bookstore and/or library.
