bram stoker’s dracula had one of the most interesting writing formats i’ve encountered. the way stoker manages to unfold the story through various perspectives with such distinct personalities and voices is fascinating and captivating. the opening third was solid, the middle third was incredibly strong, and the final third was a bit weaker than i hoped it would be. the conclusion felt lacking of the same drama, intrigue, and build that persists through the rest of the book, but wasn’t so lacking that i felt the urge to stop reading. overall a very engaging and enjoyable read!
