Wow this was gripping. Made me want to revisit all the spark notes and bbc bite size websites to get all the analysis of the themes and symbolism at play. Looking forward to the BBC adaptation they’re filming!

This book’s a good read if you like books with flawed characters. There’s definitely parts of the book that you have to interpret for yourself, which I liked. It makes you think about morals.
