Oh I didn't let it get to me when reading the story either, just kinda groaned at each "Wow she is such a remarkable woman! She actually uses her brain (and has one to use, even!) and figured this out!!" thing and shoved it to the back of my head. Most things like that I try to just shove off while reading (people being able to do stuff they very likely wouldn't have, etc), so long as the story itself is good. But when reviewing afterwards, it tends to leave some kind of impression, depending on just how much it was done. And he definitely did it tons in Dracula, lol. It's kind of amusing though, because he really thinks he's being flattering; Mina is such a gem of a woman! She can think, figure stuff out, make reasonable suggestions, doesn't fall into a dead faint at the drop of a hat, like omg, she must be the best woman EVAR! LoL
