thomas harris, even without the bigotry, still would not be a good writer. this was awfully boring, i don’t understand the appeal at all

don’t waste your time or money. not only is this book the most boring thing i’ve ever read, it’s enraging lol
hannibal rising is the only worth-it thomas harris book, & that’s only if you’re interested in understanding hannibal as a person.

cw// child grooming
don’t get me wrong — this book IS worth reading. it’s a welcomed insight into hannibal’s trauma & it builds a solid backstory. it makes it all make sense. it broke my heart! i love him (nbc hannibal) so so so so much ok
but what the fuck is wrong with thomas harris. he wrote an entire child grooming romance with lady murasaki. AND it doesn’t read at all as “he was groomed by the woman who took him in as a traumatized mute child, which messed up his mental state even more!”
it read as “and then he kissed his sexy aunt”

don’t bother. the goodreads reviews are hyping it up for no reason other than misogyny.
