I did enjoy the book, and how is so beautifully writed.
Lord henry is a character that absolutely knows how to talk, even if i didn't agreed with a lot of things he says you start to analyze his words and even think that he has some points, and ignoring his misogynistic comments, he's really interesting and i liked reading his dialogs, even if he's kinda an ass. Also about the characters i felt so bad for basil.
But yeah i want to read the uncensored version and also read it in English

this was so hyped i had such high expectations 😭. the beginning was really good, until i got about 1/3rd of the way through and realized that absolutely nothing had happened. i was waiting for excitement. after he gets engaged it gets soooo boring. i struggled to get through it. and even the big moments in the book like the murder were a yawn. i’m sorry guys but this is just not worth it. i’m a classics girly through and through but mr wilde does not deserve the hype he gets with this one.
