This book had really interesting themes regarding gender, colonization, and even energy for the time period. Mina was a Victorian girlboss. However, the text was a slog to get through at times with the descriptions and changing POVs. Van Helsing’s sections were especially repetitive. The ending itself seemed like it happened very quickly, even though there was so much buildup to it.
