Anne Rice

If I had to choose a favorite author I believe it would be Anne Rice. I have read all but one of her novels and it is sitting waiting for me to pick it up and read it. She is a wonderful writer. I can't think of anyone else who opens my imagination the way that she does. She makes a person feel right at home in one of her books. I imagine her most famous book would be "Interview with a Vampire"

Ms. Rice has outdone herself with her latest novel. I picked it up when I was walking through the bookstore last friday. I have read it twice since then. I can't tell you when I have ever read another book twice, especially not in a little over one week. I usually don't even read a book a week anymore. This one I have made time for. Her newest novel is
"Christ the Lord Out of Egypt" I saw the title and the first thought that came into my head is wow Jesus and Vampires, this ought to be fun. But this book is so not what I thought. It brings the boy Jesus to life. It makes Him seem more like you and I. I cannot tell you why I like this book so much, but I do. I would say if I could only have one book to last me till the day I die, this would be it.
