#ScribesAndMakers March 16: Convincing to read a book you don't care for.
You might not *enjoy* #JekyllAndHyde, but it's such a huge cultural touchstone (for anglophones) that you'd be doing yourself a favour to know how the original actually goes.

#PennedPossibilities 958: Favourite under appreciated novel?
#JekyllAndHyde. The original is *mystery* that leads readers to believe Hyde is blackmailing his rich, older lover, Jekyll. Until the very end, when Jekyll tells the story we're all familiar with. Everyone should read it. It's really good!
