I think going into the book with the societal knowledge that Jekyll and Hyde are the same person, and that they're two sides of the same coin, makes reading the book largely pointless. I'm sure if I'd read this at the time it was written, or if I'd never heard of Jekyll and Hyde before, I would have enjoyed the story more and been more drawn into it, but as it is it gets 2 stars.
This version also included the short stories 'The Body Snatcher' and 'Olalla'. These were both also fairly meh.
A note also to say that I largely only read this so I could know the source material before reading 'My Dear Henry' by Kalynn Bayron, which is a queer remix of the classic, but I don't think it was necessary at all! You can enjoy the gay version without bothering with this.
