The characters: Count Dracula: a neat man, he is looking a little white but that do all vampires. And he is very hospitable, but he also want your blood, so watch it. Jonathan Harker: A great man, because he is not afraid of the Count, even when he knows that he is a vampire. And he is smart and I think it is a little hero, because he killed the Count and saved his girlfriend. The story is chronological, and it is science fiction. And it is a old story but it could played anytime. It is a one person character story. There is also a connection to the title and the theme, vampires are mend to be scared people. Your own reaction of the book? The book was easy to read, but it was exciting. When Lucy was bitten by that vampire that was a moment that moves me. I didn’t expect it and than she is ill, yes it was said. The most I liked was Jonathan. The most that I liked from him is that he wasn’t afraid of the count. I would run like hell, when I had seen a vampire. There are lots of books that have the same subject, and I couldn’t compere with other books because this was the first one. All together I think that it is a nice book to get started with. One question to my teacher, was it necessarily to write averting in English? Extra Opdracht voor je leesverslag: Een gedicht.
