    While reading a horror novel, one thing I can never get tired of, is a dark and dangerous creature. And of all the dark creatures I've ever read, Dracula is the one which fascinates me the most. I watched all the versions of Dracula in cinema, but never read the book before. So I decided to give this book a try and I was and am still in awe of what a masterpiece this book is.
    About the plot, it has multiple narratives and all the narratives converge at a single person, Count Dracula. The novel begins with Jonathan Harker arriving in Transylvania to facilitate Count Dracula in purchasing property in London. He is trapped in the castle while Dracula travels to London. In London, Lucy Westenra , suddenly becomes pale but the cause of her blood loss isn't known. A ship with no crew or passenger arrives at docks. And Renfield, a mental patient of Dr. Seward begins acting strange. All these incidents point to Count Dracula. Dr. Van Helsing, mentor of Dr. Seward, finds out that Dracula is undead and is trying to create an army of vampires. How Van Helsing and his group of Vampire Hunters ( they don't call themselves that, but I do coz it sounds cool) defeat Dracula is the whole plot.
    This book is the best horror novel I've ever read. The initial chapters describing Jonathan Harker's arrival and escape attempts are the finest piece of writing which influences horror authors even now. The book is in epistolary format which is perfect for multiple narratives through multiple protagonists. I've found some reviews criticising the repetition of certain things but this book was written through the letters and journals of multiple narrators so how each one perceives a same incident causes a sense of repetition. This book should be read by every horror fan (like me). This book created a legacy which is timeless. I cannot put a number to that. It's perfect.
    P.S. - of all the movie adaptations, 1931 version is the best. I'm watching it now.

    It's not often that a book takes me weeks to finish, but I just couldn't bring myself to read this. I only wanted to finish it because it is a classic, and wanted to know the original Dracula story. Perhaps it is living up to the adage "a classic is a book that everyone praises but no one reads". If if this wasn't the classic that gave us vampires on which so many modern stories are based, I wouldn't even bother sticking till the end and would have given it an even lower rating.

    The entire story is told in terms of diary entries of multiple people. Very annoying when the PoV changes every few pages. And in these diary entries there's so much mundane detail and conversations, it's was hard for me to keep focus. If you took out all the pages where nothing happened that progressed the plot, it would be maybe 50 pages instead of 270+.

    Regarding Kindle In Motion, I'm not sure what it is but I see some reviews complaining that it did not work for them. I saw images embedded in the books and some were animated but it's not like the animations played out a complete scene. It was just an image made to move a little bit, lasted a few seconds. I didn't think it added anything to the story telling, neither the still pictures nor the animation. Unless mine was also broken like the others and it was supposed to do more. While it wasn't a big distraction, I wouldn't buy this for the sake of pictures and animations.

    I've wanted to buy "Dracula" by Bram Stoker for years, but it wasn't until I found this edition that I actually did it. It's a lovely, luxurious feeling to the entire book, but I have to agree with others: the print is fairly small and a little hard to read and therefore I give this book one star less than the maximum.
