I never thought about it until now, but it must be somewhat frightening to those that knew Scrooge before he changed his ways seeing him in such a jovial mood.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
And so, as Tiny Tim observed, God bless Us, Every One!
I managed to finish on Christmas Day. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Dracula Chapter 1
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(DISCLAIMER: I did read a pretty good portion of Dracula before, but don't recall where I got to.)

(Yesss, I'm glad you chose Dracula! 'tis one of my favorite books. Can't wait to see what you think about it! :D)
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(I'll start Dracula later on tonight.)
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(I'm actually going to start tomorrow…. Sorry for the wait.)
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Jonathan Harker starts his journey in Germany…. I'd love to visit that country since my ancestors are from Germany.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Just looked up a picture of "paprika hendl", and now I want to try it sometime.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Mamaliga doesn't look appetizing to me.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Nor does "impletata". However, I am well aware that sometimes even the most unappetizing looking dish can taste amazing.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
I was watching something on TV a long time ago where a team of paranormal investigators went to the castle that Stoker based Dracula's castle off of, and the people out there really are a superstitious lot.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Something tells me that that crucifix is going to come in handy later on in the story; gotta love a good macguffin!
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Robber steak sounds delicious!
Little side note that I don't need to know every little thing that Harker is eating and drinking, that does not interest me!
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
I don't think that asking the Count about these superstitions is a particularly great idea….
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
The inn's yard sounds like a lovely place.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
I'd love to be able to visit the Carpathians someday.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
Knowing what this story is about I can't blame the coachman for not wanting to stop, but I do feel bad for those horses…. Horses, if driven long and hard enough will often keep going until they die. :'-(
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(Okay, taking a break for the night to watch some TV…. Is anyone even following this thread?)
@Althalosian-is-the-father book
Stone King is, obviously. I look at it sometimes. When you read Oz, do Rinkitink in Oz first. It’s my favorite.
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(Oof…. I am remembering why I stopped reading this the first time that I tried to read it. I don't mean to offend any Dracula fans, but it's… boring. I'm gonna tough it out though! Might start reading something else on my list since I often read more than one book at a time.)
@Vuclan-is-tired
(A good series that I definitely recommend is Lockwood and Co. Just a recommendation ^^)
@SupernaturalSyGuyIsTIred group
(Okay. Noted. Thanks for the recommendation!)
