2015 Reading Challenge [Closed] discussion

I don't know much of anything about this book so it should make for an interesting read. I think I might be able to compare similar fantastical creatures in modern day like vampires and werewolves to dracula though.

I read this book a few years ago and I usually don't like classic books, but I loved this one

This was my one word title too.
Have always loved the vampire theme but had never read this classic.

I just couldn't get through the first 5 pages... So dull! I like Frankenstein, though.

I had that problem with Frankenstein until the monster started speaking.
Here is my review...

I have always been a fan of vamp litt yet had never read Dracula.
I am pleased that I finally got to it.
I found it much easier to read than Frankenstein.
The language isn't always easy, but reading proper English and well spoken, polite characters is quite refreshing!
There is wonderful faith, sadness, desperation, love and devotion.
Stoker delved into interesting themes for the time, it is intriguing.
Though vampires have existed in world folklore for hundreds of years, Dracula seems to be our main point of reference.
I love all the interpretations and so many films, from the corny to the serious and terrifying.
Francis Ford Coppola's, based on Stoker's Dracula was beautifully done.

I have book of Dracula by Bram Stoker. I love Dracula or vampires. But I don't read and no time to read.
