This was the perfect mix of creepy and intriguing, the writing does a wonderful job at delivering these feelings. The story of Jean-Baptiste Grenouille really kept me on edge and intrigued throughout. The reasoning behind his actions and motives really added to the depth of his character. I enjoyed this story, and I really do recommend it.
