No time for 'Dracula'

I knew this would happen. I got all fired up to read Dracula when it was voted as the next book for Reading Matters' Online Book Group but decided I should wait a few weeks before tackling it. Well, a few weeks has turned into almost two months. And now that the discussion is only days away -- this coming Saturday -- I realise I have actually run out of time to read it altogether! In fact, I'm not even sure where my copy is, I have so many unread piles of books laying about this apartment.

So, for those who haven't yet started the book, please join me is heaving a huge sigh of relief. Why? Because I've decided to postpone the discussion until SATURDAY DECEMBER 1.

I promise to have it read by then. And I'm sure you'll do the same. *wink wink*
