Book Review No. 03: Dracula (1897) by Bram Stoker.
It's told entirely through letters, diary entries and newspaper clippings. A young lawyer travels to Transylvania to help a polite, generous count buy a house in London. The count is the perfect host. That's the problem.
Under the horror, it's a story about people who only see what's happening to them once they finally compare notes.
Ever known a perfect host who left you drained? 馃憞
Happy Halloween eve. Read it with the lights on.
