The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers

4.0

Truly enjoyed this. Expected macabre stories all throughout, but those were only the first four. The rest were mostly of the romantic vein. One story was even a series of poems, loosely held together by a theme. I was surprised, too, that I found several of them funny, especially the ones with the interplay of young American men in Paris.

If you're not a fan of True Detective, never mind. You'll be able to enjoy this for the stories, both freaky and sweet.
