shobi 's review for:

The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne
4.0

Not sure what to rate this, I enjoyed the writing but it was very repetitive like we get it Hester and the minister are repenting and feel guilty with self inflicted wounds to the point where others forgive them. Pearl was the GOAT i love her <3 she always kept it real glad she just randomly got Chillingsworth's fortune. I strongly hate the fact the minister only laid the truth all out as he was dying, piss off you're a loser you shouldn't be allowed forgiveness but okay...

best moments - we hear about big D's whipping himself with candles, the crazy witch lady, pearl being precocious every time, D realizing RC is evil but they're fake about it, last few chapters for spirituality and drama like imagine being a towny and you find the adulter is the MINISTER?? gag of the century

ignominy, breast, pillar, scaffold
