@captainfez this is high on my to-procure. Worth it?
@elzbethmrgn Yep, very good. Propulsive, detailed, horrible. Inhaled it, basically.
@elzbethmrgn (One of the very few that I've seen a review of on release and gone "Oh, I need that." Had no idea it was coming out, but MAN.)
@captainfez yeh the cover sold me tbh but nice to know the insides also pack a punch
@captainfez my Oxford Classics turned up this week so I'm gonna keep going with the other stories
@captainfez also I have discovered I really fucking like gothic lit? So that's a new genre to lose my money to.

@elzbethmrgn YESSSSS. I found the extra two stories helped bed down Jekyll. Enjoyable!

Also YES to gothic. Y'gotta do an Anne Radcliffe read! Maybe The Mysteries of Udolpho? I also would read The Castle of Otranto again as it is a) the first gothic novel and b) batshit.

@captainfez b) has sold me on this.
@elzbethmrgn GIANT HELMETS! DISSOLUTE FAMILIES! NON-EUCLIDEAN GAUNTLETS! ROMANCE PISSTAKERY!
