Default The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova

Hello fellow book lovers,

I spent all day yesterday reading this book, which I got for a gift. It's almost 700 pages long, but I couldn't put it down. I have to recommend it! It's about Dracula, but it's not cheesy or silly. It's fascinating. It's so good that for a moment I forgot it was fiction. It is a good book for anyone who likes stories about quests, Dracula, and books. I wouldn't call it horror though. I know it's a book I'll be reading many times. It also has a lot of suspense and adventure & takes place in interesting settings all over the world. After I finished it, I did some research, and it was apparently a NY Times best seller, been published in 40 languages, and a movie of the book will come out in
2010.

Has anyone read this book? If so, what did you think?
