Up to Chapter 20

I am now actually trully enjoying Dracula. Their hunt for the vampire is now underway and while we haven't seen Dracula for a while we are still hooked showing the mark of a good book since we don't actually mind the absence of the main character.
I loved the spooky bit when Mina wakes up to find her window open despite her knowing she closed it.
Stoker also covers social aspects of life. There are a lot of places where feminists would be appaulled such as Van Helsing saying killing the vampire 'is no job for a woman' which is odd considering Mina has demonstrated that she is the most intelligent person there as well as the most emotionally strong - both Morris and the Lord cry in front of her and need her help. Renfield is finally getting important and Ive now actually started noticing him as it were and the thought of his sanity being biggest the further Dracula is away is a fantastic idea.
