4.5

The writing style of this book is beautiful; like it’s themes it is lustful, dark, cynical. This is definitely an implicit story, the story of the poisonings occur within the background nonchalantly, climaxing towards the end. It could be disappointing if you want an explicit, eerie tale of a town being poisoned which is what I initially expected, but I found myself unexpectedly entranced by the thoughts and desires of Elodie.
