4.75

dark inspiring mysterious fast-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: Complicated

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

disorienting time skips overpowered by dreamy prose and an insanely charming main character - speaks to everyone who has a strong fear of growing old couldn't be me!!! (say what you want about this book if there was a painting of me that could make me look gorgeously young forever i would take it) fr a must read for the lgbt community!!! mr. wilde an icon of gay literature and scandal and so good at making something that is such a human emotion seem so foreign and wrong and bloody!!
this book is like really strong perfume
