A review by bookishbrighton
The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson

3.0

There’s a reason this is considered a classic - the story itself is fantastic and would been ground breaking upon its release, which I can fully appreciate. Stars were lost for me purely because of the writing style - it just wasn’t my thing as it was very much of the time; I find it can feel a bit over-explanatory. That aside, I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and am glad to have experienced it first hand given how famous it is. It’s short enough that I would definitely recommend it for anyone interested in reading the classics, and of course particularly those who enjoy horror!
