I probably would not have picked up Dracula if not for Dracula Daily but I'm enjoying it! It's rather interestingly weird to read it with a. a 21st century pop culture knowledge of vampire tropes (like, "oh HO, he doesn't have any MIRRORS!") but b. absolutely no knowledge of the actual plot of Dracula. I've never even seen the movie with Winona Ryder. (I get the sense I should be worried for Lucy and/or Mina? A cowboy shows up at some point??)
