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

TieDyeDude Close enough! Thanks for donating. Our local blood bank doesn't do platelets, but I've done it in the past a few times. I struggled with sitting still for the whole time, but it is an interesting experience, and plenty of time for audiobooks 😁 6d

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.

Texreader One of my favorites of all time. And Dracula is marvelous!!! 2mo

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

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!

Amiable @DogMomIrene It was funny —when I got back to the meeting spot, a group of older ladies in our tour group swarmed me and wanted to know where I‘d gotten the book —it‘s a gorgeous leather-bound edition. So I hand sold 4 more copies! The bookstore really should hire me to make the rounds when tourists come through. 😄 2mo

Sherlock Holmes vs. Dracula | Loren D. Estleman

37/100 This series of "Further Adventures" of Sherlock Holmes are very hit or miss. I deem this one a definite miss. While the author does a good job mimicking the writing style of Conan Doyle, the story is kind of flat and the ending is seriously anticlimactic. Other SH stories, like The Hounds of the Baskervilles, had supernatural elements, but they were all explained in logical, reality based solution. I was hoping it wouldn't really be the ⬇️

RamsFan1963 mythical monster, but something more human hiding behind the legend. I wonder why Dracula is never portrayed in the movies with a mustache, since I understand he has one in the original novel. 3 ⭐⭐⭐ #Read2025 #SeriesLove2025 3mo
AnnCrystal I'm the wacky kind, who becomes very disappointed when the supernatural gets debunked 😜😂🧐🧛📚💫. 3mo

Did we need another book about Dracula that feels not too different from the original? I‘m not sure I did. It felt overly long, and dragged in parts for me. I did like that many of the characters were scholars and that a good deal of the story is them researching, delving into old tomes in search of historic scraps about Vlad that others may have missed.

Overall though, I can‘t say I gained much from reading this.

Ruthiella I loved this when I first read it - back when I read maybe 20 books a year- but am not sure how I‘d feel were I to read it now. 4mo

My Barnes & Noble mini haul. I've been wanting to read Dracula and picked up this edition because of the cool cover.
