The Belle Gone Bad: White Southern Women Writers and the Dark Seductress by Betina Entzminger

elineedsmoreshelves's review against another edition

3.0

I had issues with the book - it seemed like it wanted to be a longer novel, like with a bit more exploration, the relationship and plot would have flowed and felt more natural. I struggled with the seemingly sudden introduction of the supernatural elements - again, perhaps a bit more time to allow the reader to feel the need for those elements would make them seem less intrusive. That said, I read the book in about 2 days, so it was definitely entertaining!

(I was provided with a review copy of this novel by the published via Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion.)
