  • Fascinating story for people who "in to" Vampires/Vampire narratives!

    I read this book when I was 19 years old--in two evenings after working and attending college, so I started reading it late at night and finished it in two nights! Literally decades later, I am re-reading it and find it even more interesting than I did back in my college days--no wonder three movies were made from this book. The price of this book was unbelievably low, and the book was in very good condition. I have absolutely no complaints! This book/story comes highly recommended.
