I read it by listening the OSP stream, so that may have increased my enjoyment more than normal. 
But it is well put together with great characters. And despite being as racist as expected for the time (lots of use of the g-slur) it has surprisingly feminist parts. Specifically how smart Mina is and the fact that the one time they cut her out of the action, it bites them in the ass, showing it was the wrong thing to do. 
Overall a great horror classic and perfect for spooky season.
