A Bloody Cool Discovery

If you are looking for the ultimate Halloween gift for yourself -- because honestly, who gives Halloween gifts to anyone else? -- why not splurge on The New Annotated Dracula by Leslie S. Klinger, with an introduction by Neil Gaiman. With my favorite classics, I sometimes like to find an annotated version to gain more understanding of the author and the meanings of some parts that may not be readily approachable in the modern era. This book is full of Bram Stoker history, Dracula lore and literary analysis. What could be more comforting on a lonely autumn night than to snuggle up with a mug of cocoa, a thick protective scarf and this big vampire book?
