What the back of the book says
What I thought
From the dank crypt of his forbiding castle in the forests of Transylvania to the bustling, foggy streets of Victorian London, Count Dracula comes to claim his victims... to feed the lustful hunger that has damned him to a life of lonely immortality... and to bind to him an innocent young woman-the miraculous double image of the love that he lost four centuries ago.  Here is the extraordinary story of a creature possessed of an irresistible sexuality and a powerful evil as old as time itself.  This unforgettable classic of darkly erotic horror is now a magnificent motion picture from Francis Ford Coppola, featuring an internationally celebrated cast.  Here is the ultimate retelling of a story that has mesmerized readers for nearly a century.

Dracula
This was a great book.  There really isn't much to say that wasn't said on the book.  The one question is, "Is the book better than the movie?"  Well, i can't answer that.  They follow an identical script, so maybe they're equals.  I saw the movie before reading the book, so while reading the book, I just pictured those parts of the movie I had seen..  Maybe if I had read the book before seeing the movie, I would have enjoyed it more.  But now I'll never know.
