Would people actually read it? And, better yet, would I actually get through it all so I could moderate a discussion? I was hopeful – Anne Rice is a classic contemporary author for a reason, right? – but all spring I was also holding my breath a bit, hoping this pick wouldn’t alienate all my book club members.Īnd some did decide to bow out of our spring book pick, which I totally get. When it came time to choose which Anne Rice book to put up for a vote, I decided “ The Witching Hour” sounded the most exciting.Īnd then I realized it was well over 1,000 pages – the longest book pick to date in the club and much, much longer than what I normally pick up. Our spring theme was a novel set in New Orleans, so Anne Rice seemed like a natural fit. See the end of this post and/or my disclaimer for more.
