Upon realizing my major, many people then ask me the golden question: "What, then, is your favorite book?" I never have an answer. I've read many books and have liked them. However, I don't know how to classify THE favorite with so many different styles and genres available.
However, I am beginning to recognize that perhaps I should have a list of books that could be contenders for THE favorite. Dracula is on that list.
I just finished this great book this evening. I've had many epiphanies and have been excited to turn the next page and discover what perils the characters find themselves in and especially as all things are interrelated. I found myself feeling a bit of triumph at the last. Good wins over evil! However, it isn't in an over exorbitant manner. The end comes as a plausible and realistic culmination of events.
I also find each character interesting as well as the relationships between each person. I also enjoy a writer who, though at times portrays a woman to be softer and more prone to "shock", it feels as it is done gallantly. Mina is a very capable woman and is largely tied to the triumph in the defeat of her predator-master.
