So where’s Watson’s wife????

“I care for nothing now […] except to wipe out this brute from the face of creation. I would sell my soul to do it!”
“Oh, hush, hush, my child!” Said Van Helsing. “God does not purchase souls in this wise, and the Devil, though he may purchase, does not keep faith.”

“Then without a word we all knelt down together, and all holding hands, swore to be true to each other. We men pledged ourselves to raise the veil of sorrow from the head of her whom, each in his own way, we loved. And we prayed for help and guidance in the terrible task which lay before us.”



It’s just so good ya’ll 😭

“Pow pow pow!”

🧛🏻‍♂️

The fourth Hamlet reference!

The lunatic is under the influence of the moon

Another Shakespeare reference— Othelo this time.

Two Hamlet references in three chapters…what might they mean…

Hamlet is a story of revenge. Perhaps Stoker is trying to show us that his is also a story of revenge, but rather than human revenge, it is a story of holy revenge?

IDK we’ll see.

I was already planning to reread this in October before I knew Lucy was going to. 😄

Picking up now

Not much happening so far

“If a true princess has done wrong, she is always uneasy until she has had an opportunity of throwing the wrongness away from her by saying, “I did it; and I wish I had not; and I am sorry for having done it.” So you see there is some ground for supposing that Curdie was not a miner only, but a prince as well.”

I wonder how much differently the story would have played out if Curdie had been willing to believe?

I basically have this memorized

My first re-read of the year

So far I’ve been shown none of this character’s better qualities and so I have no reason to care about him. Snark and savy aren’t virtues.

Welp Sir Guy sure didn’t do much.

RIP Will 😭

I’m genuinely sad
