J.A. Carter-Winward answers “I love Lestat, but I could not finish...”

A Goodreads user asked this question about Prince Lestat (The Vampire Chronicles, #11):

I love Lestat, but I could not finish Blood Canticle. Is there worth attempting? Or will I just be disappointed?

J.A. Carter-Winward I couldn't finish this book. Three chapters in I was laughing at how ridiculous it was. Disjointed, clunky dialogue, poor editing...and of course, wha…moreI couldn't finish this book. Three chapters in I was laughing at how ridiculous it was. Disjointed, clunky dialogue, poor editing...and of course, what turned me off from her last few chronicle books--the characterizations of all of the gorgeous, rich, dandy, pansexual vampires who cry at the drop of a hat and fall in"love" with each other after they first meet. I just couldn't. No, no, no. (less)
