I'm reading the BN classic also, I just started and I'm still on chapter one, hoping to get a lot more read this weekend.
So close to finishing The Shining! As soon as I finish this beast I'll be picking up Dracula. Can't wait!
Im trying to finish The Exorcist ( Brilliant book ) but every time i pick it up someone arrives or the phone rings!
Anybody ready to start discussing our book? Or are we waiting until more people are finished? I will say that I am enjoying this book more the second time around, first time I picked it up was for school, so I don't think I really appreciated Stoker's writing. I am not finished but I will say Stoker's description of the country side and castle is so vivid it really sets the ambiance, dark, mysterious and foreboding. I envision the Count different than Stoker does, I grew up on the old BW movies so I see a more classic young Christoper Lee or Bela Lugois.
I finally started it! Gah. I've been reading so many other things and neglecting this one. I'm really enjoying the creepy atmosphere of it so far.



I haven't started it yet but mine is an old Barnes and Noble classics edition. It's 444 pages.
