4.5

4.5 - The story was great, maybe a tad bit too long? I’m not gonna lie, I kinda got bored in the middle of the book but it was still very interesting. I was just disappointed by the lack of “vampire lore” and just Dracula himself throughout the story (this mf is never here wtf). I think Twilight mention vampires more in a single chapter than this book in 500 pages which is crazy because it’s DRACULA?

I think my vision of what this book was going to be about got blinded by the modernized version of vampires I have in my head, does that even make sense??? I was just expecting this story to be very scary, full of blood and murder and hot vampires biting necks in a haunted castle but it was more “me and my friends that I love so so much are going to defeat this evil creature with the power of God, love and friendship” but it was good nonetheless.
