The Beguiled by Thomas Cullinan
4.0
The only book I’ve read that features both a poisoning plot and a group of boarding-school girls chanting the phrase “Ham, ham, wonderful ham,” and for that I have to give it three and a half stars at least.
As delightful and creepy on the page as the Coppola film adaptation was to the screen. We all like to think we’re above acting foolish for the affection of Some Guy, but seeing how McBurney manipulated every character was chilling. It took me a few sections to start understanding which girl was which, but I really enjoyed this book.
