Reader sets aside new birthday book to reread Dracula

Original: I think a book I got as a birthday present* might slip down the TBR a spot, since I have a sudden urge to reread Dracula

A reader in Australia says a copy of The Shards by Bret Easton Ellis, received as a birthday present, may slip down their to-be-read list after a sudden urge to reread Bram Stoker's Dracula. They note the seasonal timing makes a gothic reread tempting, whatever the local weather says.

Why now: Spooky-season rereading urges are a familiar annual ritual for book readers.
