For the last two days I have done practically nothing other than read Dracula. I have now finished it, thank goodness.
For the most part, I enjoyed it. I found that the text seemed to drag towards the end, in the way that many books of the period do. It amazed me that after a 150 page leadup, the actual climax itself was less than a page long, and there was less than a half-page of epilogue. This is so very contrary from most modern fiction.
Ah well. Now that it's done I can finally do stuff that isn't reading Dracula. Stupid obsessive tendencies.
