pickA new favourite!
I don't know why it took me this long to read the book that mostly started it all. I've always enjoyed Vampire Lore and read plenty of other Vampire stories, so I'm baffled with myself for not reading this.
An excellent story, in a distinctive writing style that kept me up way to late.
Now I need to read more of the original Vampire Lore
Reminder: The first #litsyblooddrive is taking place on August 9. Schedule your donations on or around that date, or see the previous post for more ways to get involved.
Who needs blood?
1. Cancer: Patients use more than 1/4 of the US blood supply
2. Maternity: 1 in 83 deliveries require transfusions
3. Pediatrics and neonatal
4. Sickle Cell Disease
5. Trauma: 80% of ER deaths and 50% of deaths from injuries are due to severe blood loss.
so-soI thought it would be an interesting read but no. It was hard to keep up with all of the journal entries. It wasn‘t what I expected it to be. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love this @TieDyeDude !! I actually just signed up for a blood drive at my work happening on July 16. So I‘ll be participating early. I am using this donation to determine if I can be a candidate to donate platelets in the future. This time of year is when shortages tend to happen. Please donate if you can! #LitsyBloodDrive
I‘m rereading this old favorite via audio. It‘s such a good narration. I‘m hoping to finish my reread and then read Dracula by Brad Stoker for the first time - like a buddy read.
for me its the historian with 740 pages…but i loved the writing and the research that went into the writing was amazing so it didnt feel like it was a long read and it only took me 1 month to finish :) @BookmarkTavern #sundayfunday
pickAh, this book was a delightfully creepy trip and a half. Following along with #Dracula‘s Lucy and #JaneEyre‘s Bertha, this book explores the real cost of immortality, and the lies and machinations of the men that trapped the two in eternal life. I‘m not much of a horror fan at all, but this book was gruesome at times and had a serious gothic feel, it felt more melancholy to me than anything else. Fast-paced, very well-drawn, and fascinating.
Stumbled onto this gorgeous bookstore in Bucharest‘s Old Town today. It‘s located in a former nobility palace. What did I buy? After a tour of Transylvania, it had to be a copy of “Dracula” — of course!
