This was a gothic masterpiece. I fell in love with the mystery and womanhood built into this story in all its beautiful forms. The feeling is very Crimson Peak meets Jane Eyre (ha cause it’s read by Louis in the book) with all the gloriously dark Victorian manor haunted by something unknown but so very real.
Moderate: Gun violence, Miscarriage, and Lesbophobia
