Dracula by Bram Stoker
5.0

Nowadays, Dracula and vampires have many forms in western culture, from the bat-to-human, anti-reflective, to the sparkly Stephanie Meyer category. That being said, it was interesting to see vampires presented/portrayed for (one of?) the first time.

One of my favourite things about this book was the presentation––the "documentary" form took me by surprise! Stoker's use of the grotesque was, of course, timeless and incredible. Many of these images (like the image of Mina and Dracula) will stick with me for life.
