Fair Warning : There will be some spoilers regarding characters in the book so if you haven't read it and you're planning on reading it then i advise you to stop reading this.
This is my first post so it is kinda pretentious of me to speak for a big part of this community especially since i've seen many different oppinions being expressed on many subjects but,it would seem that a good lot of you agree that this book is indeed pretty good.I want to find out why.
Now to give you a bit of backstory;i read this book in its original version or at least the closest i could get to the original version,after being prompted by some posts i saw discussing books.
I gave it a go and though i found it to be an engaging book i was just not impressed.
Most of the scenery described is nice,but that all goes away after the first few chapters and we only see glimpses of it by the end,the characters were all shallow (with the exceptions being Dr.Seward and his patient)and the story just seemed to go in a loop towards the end before coming to an abrupt stop.
All in all i was left dissapointed and i want to know what other people find so good about it.
For me it was neither horror (though that might partially be because pretty much everyone knows about vampires to an extent so it kinda takes away from the mystery behind it)nor action for it was moving pretty slowly with gradual progress being made only towards the end.
