Since I am the last in my #LMPBC group to read this, I can write what I really feel. It was just okay. I am not sure I would consider this a GN. I think of it more as a fully illustrated collection since little to no speech or thought bubbles were used. Some of the stories like the Mask of the Red Death were so paired down, it took it’s soul away, while others, we just too long winded (I’m looking at you Tell Tale Heart). I have never been a fan of Annabelle Lee but I love what the illustrator did with the visual representation. And I can honestly say, I had never read The Bells before, but I now think it will forever be my favorite Poe poem. Overall for me this is just above a three star read, but I understand it, and I understand what makes it so popular.
