A review by happytreereads
Dracula by Bram Stoker
adventurous
dark
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
3.5
Dracula: A Summary, by Yours Truly, And By Yours Truly I Mean Me Who Is An Individual Who Does Not Properly Appreciate Classic Literature And Probably Missed The Whole Point Of This Book, Whatever It Was.
~~~
A bunch of manly man dudes & two women come upon a Great Evil which they must destroy lest it destroy them and all the world, but one of the women dies, so the rest of the dudes decide two (2) things: they must stop this Great Evil, and the other woman must stay behind, because she is delicate, and beautiful, and could not bear the strain like they can, they being men you see, but um this woman does most of the heavily lifting, intellectually, and they discover that they straight up need her, and it would be dumb to leave her behind because she'd be better protected with them anyways, and also did I mention that they really need her for her brains and honestly they act like it's just NICE that she helped as much as she did but c'mon she carried this Rescue The World mission on her back, and also she was literally the worst off physically of any of them but was still holding up the best?????? And they thought she couldn't handle it???? And she's the one trying to comfort THEM????? Not only is she a genius, she is also mother/comforter/strength by day and a light by night to three grown men while she's like also kind of low key actively decaying in body and soul ?? ???
...
...
Anyways, she kicks butt and saves the day but then the men come in and truly end it with their knives and guns just in case we forgot our place.

3.5 ⭐ a jolly run but the characters kinda started annoying me and now I'm also really scared of vampires.
Thank you and goodnight.
