Used the Dracula daily and it was even better in many ways to reading it as originally written because it was sent on the day. Could feel passage of time.

Interesting read. Stoker's decision to tell the story in letters and journal entries allowed you to get into the head of many different characters, but I feel like that took away a lot of the suspense. Not one of my favorites but it was cool to see the origin of the iconic characters.

The story is much grimmer than I remember. I think memory easily becomes tainted by what Hollywood does to books and they have romanticized this one properly.

A garlic stuffed mouth
major (tasty) overkill

I enjoyed the beginning of the story so so much! It was great, had a bit of tension and some funny parts, but the ending bored the crap out of me

3.5 stars. It's a classic but it does kind of go on for a while with not much suspense. Definitely worth reading, but I just found it kind of hard to finish.

The early part is some of the best horror literature I've ever read. Afterwards the book drowns a bit in dialogue; everyone speaks in full paragraphs. Overall still I enjoyed the experience
