I just finished reading Dracula in Love. I started it Tuesday and finished it on Friday. The book is amazing and I hated when I finished it. This out does any Dracula stories I have ever read. Please, write a follow up to this book. Count Dracula is portrayed as the perfect catch…..what are you thinking Mina? Please, do not delay and start writing the sequel today! The Count and Mina was portrayed by Gary Oldman and Winnona Ryder in Bram Stoker’s Dracula and when reading Dracula in Love, the movie put a face to your characters. Gary Oldman played the perfect Count Dracula, although the movie is from 1992, I still watch it to this day!

Not that there aren’t problems with the show, but Olivia Pope’s a woman powerful enough to walk into the White House whenever she wishes and yank the president’s…um, chain. I hadn’t realized the character was based on a real person.

When Get Christie Love and Julia came out, I was old enough to remember them, but to young to understand these shows were groundbreaking. I assumed people of all colors were on TV. It was not until the 1980s that I notice everyone on TV were white. It bothered me for long time. Thankfully times are changing, I am sitting here watching a news program that has a black female host and two black female journalists. Times are changing, but we still have a long way to go.

I certainly enjoyed Mina much more because I never felt that she was preaching to anyone. She simply wanted the freedom to live her life as she wanted. I like that in a heroine, because more than anything she’s not letting others dictate how she should be. Mina is simply being herself which is (to me) an infinitely more inspiring and courageous heroine.
