The sleeping beauty trilogy by Anne Rice

What?....yes y'all, I read all three novels in this trilogy. What can I say about them? Complicated really. But to make the complication simple for busy people like you and me, I would just say, they are readable, at least most of the pages. The first half of the first book "the claiming of sleeping beauty" is what I enjoy most though. In fact the reason I continued reading is all in those first 100 pages. Intriguing novel based on the subject that people usually wouldn't want to discuss publicly. After several days I continued with the second phase "Beauty's punishment" and the final one " beauty's Release". I am amazed at myself for finishing it but I guess they are totally no where near as bad as the Fifty Shades trilogy which I found nauseatingly "plastic". And I would say, "hey, this one is a best seller! Do we really have that many perverts on this planet?". In summary, I found this read as some kind of a discovery, rather ...to the darkness of man' and women' tortured minds.....
