good god do I wish I had read this before I watched the Handmaiden, which is a Korean movie adaptation of this book. My experience definitely wasn’t as good as someone’s who doesn’t know the reveals and twists of this story, naturally. 

Over all, I like this but there’s something about this book that just doesn’t quite click with me as much as I would want it to so I can’t give it more than 4 stars but I have no idea what that something is
