Dracula

Pg 236-258

Van and Seward rush into finding Renfield on the verge of his death. His back was broke and face was smashed. Renfield said Dracula made a deal with him, He then invited Dracula in, then he beat Renfield. Renfield tells them he worries Dracula wants to harm Mina. Van and Seward find Mina bitten on the neck and Dracula forcing her to drink his own blood. Harker is sleeping next to them unaware. Van gets Dracula out. Someone burnt one copy of all the documents related to Dracula. Van says it was Dracula and tells Arthur and Morris what happened to Mina. Harker and Mina wake up, Harker demands an explanation. Mina thinks she is contaminated after drinking Dracula’s blood. Mina sae everything that happened but was powerless. The men decide that the next morning, they must set out neutralizing the wooden boxes to begin fighting Dracula.

Harker is stressed after Dracula’s attack on Mina. Men tell her everything they know and that she might be a threat to them, but she disagrees. Van tells her if she dies while Dracula is alive, she will become an “undead”. The men are going to Sterilize the boxes while sunshine still protects them. Harker wants to stay with Mina but she insists for him to go. Van touches the communion wafer de Mina’s for head for extra protection. She cries out from pain and it sears her skin. Van believes her face will be soon innocent of evil. Harker says she shall not go into the unknown terrible land alone. The men place communion wafer on each box of earth. The men go to London, they find and sterilize 8 boxes of earth but they expected 9. They find paperwork and keys to another property.

An important part is when Mina gets attacked because if they dont kill Dracula, then she will come a vampire.

The Metamorphosis pgs.6-14

The family does not feel comfortable seeing gregor like this so they keep him in his room and they are wondering what they will do without Gregors income.

Dracula 321-349
The team decides they are going to start keeping Mina in the loop of events to ensure her safety. Mina declares she will kill herself if she develops vampire tendencies, but they advise to try and wait until Dracula is dead because his power over her will resign. They are now going to bless the boxes of earth the Count had delivered with holy water, while they do that Mina is sitting in her room blessed with the water and surrounded with garlic. The holy water actually burns Mina. Van Helsing reads up on Dracula’s life alive, and notes that he was quite smart, but his brain stopped developing when he turned into a vampire. This leaves him with a young-life mind. Dracula appears next to the men, and Jonathan dives for him and slices his clothing. The men hold up the crucifixes and so Dracula disappears. The end the chapter with Mina being hypnotized can tell them what Dracula is doing.
The most significant thing is the men having the ability to know where Dracula is.

The Metamorphosis pg. 96-109

The lodgers that are visiting the apartment have kind of like a party, and ask Grete to play violin. When she starts playing, the sound attracts Gregor. He goes out and peaks his head around a corner thinking that he can get Grete’s attention and have her play in his room. The lodgers quickly notice him and point him out, but instead of violence Gregor’s father kicks the lodgers out and they talk about Gregor. The family believes that there is no Gregor left, and Grete thinks they need to kick him out. Tis greatly upsets Gregor.

An important part of what I read is that the book keeps mentioning Gregor’s weakness and hunger. It will not be long before he dies do to these things.
