Dracula

I have just finished the book Dracula by Bram Stoker. It was a great book and I really enjoyed it top to bottom. I would reccommend this book to anyone who likes a good adventure. It is very action packed and exciting. It does go through phasess where it gets kind of boring when Stoker has to explain a lot of the little details about Dracula. Other than that it was a great book. I would describe this book as being kind of dense in some parts and a kind of slow read. I n the middle there were several parts where i just couoldn't stay focused and i would have to put the book down for awhile and then come back to it. this is probably why I took so long to read it. Even though it was a slow read i still loved this book and wouldn't mind a bit if I could read it again right now. The vocabulary was challenging in some places and i would have to go and look up the defintitions while i was reading so that i would understand what was happening. i am a little disappointed in the ending of the book because it seemed that it just came to a quoick end after it had been leading up to that moment the entire book. i was really looking forward to the ending to see what would happen and who would win, and then all of a sudden it was over. it was kind of like he just ran out of time and had to come up with a quick ending. i wish he had gone into more detail about it and described it like he described all of the other things the main characters did.

Dracula

I am currently reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. I am almost done with the book and the chase is really heating up. The five main characters are getting ready to follow Dracula back to his mansion in Transylvania. For the most part this book is extremely exciting and interesting, but there have been parts lately that have been kind of boring and long winded. Contrary to my last blog about how Stoker doesn't include unnecessary information, he has begun to include extra information. He is trying to explain all of the smaller details about Dracula and vampires and i feel that he has included a lot of unneccessary information. it has really slowed down how fast i have been reading it because I will lose interest in the reading. Even though the going has been slow it is a great book. I really like the storyline of the book and all of the details. I like how Dracula has been trying to plan his invasion of England and then the world by using his boxes od dirt and putting them in strategic places. One part of the story that has been very confusing is the boxes of dirt because Stoker never really explains them or what they are until just now in the book, which is pretty close to the end. It turns out they were just boxes of sacred dirt that he could sleep in, but the way he described them at the beginning was that the boxes held other vampires that he had infected.

Dracula

I am currently reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. I have been really enjoying this book. i think part of the reason i like this book so much is the story line. Every time i pick up the book i can never put it down. On every page there is the possibility that something really exciting might happen and because of this i just cant stop reading every night. One thing i have noticed is that it is a very dense book. By this I mean that I could read it for half an hour and only get through several pages. I really like everything that has happened so far in this book. there haven't been any parts where it seemed that it was unnecessary. Everything is relevant to the story and has a purpose. Nothing is just there to take up space and have no meaning. His vocabulary is sometimes very confusing because he uses some very long words that i have never heard before. There is probably at least one word per page that i will have to stop and look up. It makes the reading go alot slower but it really helps me learn new words. Even when i do look up the words i spmetimes don't remember the defintion. Even with all of these confusing words I still love this book and I can't wait to finish it.

Dracula

I am currently reading Dracula, by Bram Stoker. I am really enjoying this book. I really like how Stoker writes it in the perspective of the characters. He does this by making all of it journal entries or letters to the other characters. this is really interesting because its easier for me to undersstand how they feel. It also gives you a feel for their personalities which is pretty cool. Sometimes it can get a little bit confusing because their are several peoples journal entries in a row and the setting skips around with the person who is writing. Another thing that can get kind of confusing, is the way he writes. Since Stoker is english he spells words differently and he wrote the book 100 years ago so the oder of the words is different. Another problem with the story being over 100 years old is, that some words had different meanings then they do now. An example of this is the word without. He uses it like the word outside. He will say something like; the wolves were without. Now we would say; the wolves are outside. The word without means that you are mising something, or without it, but not in this story. Ireally like the story line of the book. I like how it starts off in Dracula Castle and moves to London where there is plenty of food for Dracula. This is a great book and i just can't take my eyes off of it. I really love this book and I can't wait to get back to reading it.
