belladonnashrike's review against another edition
4.25
for the late 50s, this was probably extremely dark and disturbing. but i’m used to this genre & have read/seen worse in both books and movies so I guess that’s why I didn’t feel the way others probably felt when it came out. it felt more like a thriller than horror because of that, but that’s just me.
I enjoyed most of it, except for the explanation bit near the end (chapters 15-16, I think). I loved the final chapter, though.
Moderate: Misogyny, Murder, and Violence
Minor: Forced institutionalization and Transphobia
