STAFF PICKS: Helen

Dracula by Bram Stoker
I’ve been rediscovering literary classics through eAudiobooks, and it’s been such a pleasant surprise. Recently I listened to Dracula on Libby, and it completely changed how my commute and exercise workouts! I was completely absorbed in the dark world of Count Dracula and his vampires. The narration really brought the story to life, making it creepy and dramatic. Listening to a horror story for me is an immersive experience and the narrator did an great job of holding the suspense and doing justice to this classic read.
