Carmilla by J. Sheridan Le Fanu
3.75
dark mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Carmilla is a fascinating read given its historical context predating Dracula.

A true gothic vibe which, at the time it was published, must have been seen as scandalous but is timid by today’s standards - with an end that felt unsatisfying.
