This book was so good. Characters to love and hate. A lot of ups and downs. I will say that Harry/Lord Henry got increasingly frustrating and disgusting with time, but he can be the kind you love to hate. And the chapter that drags on endlessly about different hobbies Dorian gets into kept this from being a 5 star read for me. It was perfectly gothic with a dissent into madness and an eerie bit of…something in the background. I know I’ll read this many times in my life.
