Dracula

I am about to start Dracula, by Bram Stoker. I am really looking forward to reading this book because it is so popular. On an almost daily basis somebody will bring up Dracula, and there are several movies based on the book. All of the people that i know who have read the book have enjoyed it immensly. I have never read any other books by Bram Stoker, so i am interested to see how he writes. One of the reasons i am looking forward to this book is, that there isn't as much boring stuff as there is exciting stuff. I don't like to read books that have long periods of nothing happening. A book should be exciting and keep the reader engaged in the story. Whenever I read books with long boring parts i lose interest and i can never finish the book. Sometimes I will have to skip these spots, and i miss valuable information. This book is a classic and has not only been reccommended by my teacher, but both of my parents have wanted me to read it. i am also very interested in this book because I know who Dracula is and that he is a vampire, but other than that i know very few details. I am very interested in the details so that I will know what I am talking about whenever there is a conversation going on about Dracula. I have never read a vampire book before so i think it will be entertaining to read one and see how the vampies operate in different stories.
