Dracula. H. Rider Haggard. Henry James.
A full week of consistent reading — seven days, 588 pages, and two finished books.

In this weekly wrap-up (October 12–18, 2025), I finished Q’s Legacy by Helene Hanff and Earth Abides by George R. Stewart, made major progress in King Solomon’s Mines, dove deeper into Dracula, and started The Great God Pan and The Portrait of a Lady.
