0I’ve been meaning to actually sit down and read Dracula since I got it whenever in 2022 or ’23, whichever. I subscribed to the original Dracula Daily emails, even read a couple, and then missed a bunch of ones.
I liked how it was formatted in the review copy. The original text normal (so like any other book) and the comments and/or fan art made by readers on the margins of the pages.
Really, I think all classics should be read like this or sort of like this. The bite-sized chapters makes it easier (of course not every classic has dates like in here but you could still read one chapter a day). You could even follow along in a normal copy of Dracula – keep to the dates in the book and browse the tag on various social media sites. Obviously it will be different to what was gathered in this book, but still nonetheless fun.
