I was really hoping for more from this one. I have always loved the concepts, but found myself disappointed by their origins in this novella.

Fajna krótkac gdybym nie przeczytała spoileru na okładce to pewnie byłaby nawet fajniejsza. Plus wgl jest to fake info co jest jeszcze bardziej głupie, bo jekyll nie popełnia samobojstwa

Loved the story. The idea was great. A little hard to keep track of characters and the "transformation" but it's definitely worth the read.

dark mysterious medium-paced

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I enjoyed the presentation of the narrative, the way our understanding builds slowly throughout. However, the conclusion didn't ensnare me the way I think it was meant to, and I do understand why most retellings make the changes they do.
