One of those victorian tales that has such an interesting fantasy element - maybe fairy tale aspect - but it really written to be sensual? It's not strongly one or the other, which kinda just ended up being creepy to me? I did enjoy reading a summary at the end that takes about the early feminist aspects of this tale about sisterhood and not being "ruined" or cast out by a sexual experience.
