This was a suggestion from a friend for “K” in the ABC challenge I was finishing up this month so I didn’t really know anything going into it. I really liked the format of The King In Yellow being an entity in the story, and the stories all being different but very much connected. I thought it was kind of slow to read at parts, but I liked the way the story was written so much it made up for that.
