[...] Vance didn’t get top billing, they definitely stole the show on Audible’s version of Dracula. She’s also narrated The American Heiress by Daisy Goodwin, a book I’ve wanted to [...]

No it’s not odd. I’m older than you. I haven’t read either novel yet. Meant to read Frankenstein this year. Didn’t get to it. Have you read The Hound of The Baskervilles? It’s really good.

I loved this book – even the melodrama ‘time is of the essence, people!’ – made me laugh.
There’s something so satisfying about reading a review from someone who has just read a book you love and decided they like it – I don’t really know why – it’s not like I wrote the book after all! Maybe it makes you feel like you have a connection.
I also read Frankenstein again fairly recently – it’s a sad book isn’t it?
Thanks
Lynn

I really loved the audiobook of Dracula too. I listened to it a few months ago and also reviewed it on my blog. But my review is much less in-depth than yours. I had forgotten about that repeated section until you mentioned that. It didn’t really bother me that much, I guess. These things happen.

You got it! I wouldn’t push vampires or Dracula on anyone, but if you might want to dip a toe into the pool, this is a great place to test the water.

This would make a great way to reread the book, Serena. It gives you a great listening experience on top of the story.

If you ever decide to give this a try, this audiobook is the way to go. It would be very hard to touch the Simon Vance/Katy Kellgren combo. Heaven!

I am heading over to your review now. I wanted to say so much more about the book, but I had to draw a line in the review sand.

I’ve only read the beginning of the book (in high school for fun) then gave up because I wasn’t in the mood and knew what was going to happen in the book because of watching a movie version. I still have no desire to read it, but if I’m in the mood for vampires I know where to go.
