The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova

School will be the death of me! The semester is coming to a close and I have 3 more papers to do and then it's finals. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Anyway, here is a recommendation of one of my favorite books.

If you like vampires that don't sparkle, then perhaps this is the book for you. Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian tells the story of professors going missing and a strange book that's connecting them all. Could Dracula be real? Only way to find out.. is to find his tomb.

It's a page turning adventure filled with thriller, suspense, and mystery. Check it out if you have the time. (:

  3. I love Anne Rice, but hate all this new vampire hype, I think it's misplaced; I'll check this out and see if it makes me reminisce for the time before "sparkling tween bad-asses."

  10. I should send this over to some of my old history professors from college, I'm sure they would get a kick out of a "Historian" being involved in anything cool for once. haha
