Dracula

In an effort to provide real information for members of my book club, I am reading the selections available for next month's reading. I'm at the half-way point with Dracula by Bram Stoker. I am pleasantly surprised with this novel. I admit, I picked it up thinking that I would have to just plug along until I finished it. However, it has been a page-turner for me. I love the way Stoker writes and entwines myth and faith. I have had many epiphanies through my reading and am excited to see what develops as I continue.
In comparison with Frankenstein, I feel that this novel is better able to mix reality with the implied science of medicine. Frankenstein had a lot of missing information because it couldn't make sense whereas Dracula takes you purposefully through the study of the human brain to acknowledge certain issues.
