Do I remember reading The Scarlet Letter in high school? Kind of.

Am I sure the one star reviews for Hester are giving The Scarlet Letter too much credit? Absolutely.

I loved this, only thing is I think the title should’ve been different, but Hester does draw you in with the connection to The Scarlet Letter.
