Dracula - The Only Book You Should This Halloween

Do you love scary stories and classic literature? Bran Stoker's Dracula does not disappoint! A timeless classic that has inspired people for ages is a proven page turner. 

I love to read and especially love when I find a holiday themed book that I can read during a  holiday season. 

With Halloween just around the corner  I have the perfect classic scary book to recommend to you - Dracula!


I'm sure you have seen all sorts of Dracula movies because there are like a million different spoofs done with Dracula. But have you actually read the classic story told by Bram Stoker? When I finally did I as hooked!

Bram Stoker uses a unique style of writing to craft this story called epistolary writing, which is a fancy way of saying the story is told through a bunch of letters, diary entries or even newspaper clippings. 

The story flows so well that as you read these personal letters between the characters you forget you are reading a novel. As the letters unfold and the events of the encounter with Dracula build, you the reader are sucked in (pun intended), craving to know what happens next.

Let me just say it is a hard book to put down!

This is definitely not a book for young children to read but it would be appropriate for an older teen to read.
