The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Genre: Classic feminist psychological horror
Short Summary: An unnamed woman suffering from depression goes insane after her husband confines her to the house.
My rating: 5/5

How do I review this? What to say? I don't know. This was too disturbing and profound to review my usual way. So I'll leave it at this: This is an amazing book with an amazing writing style and amazing themes. Everyone should read it. Bonus if you listen to the audiobook I did: The narrator is perfect.

Do I recommend it? Definitely. Read. It. Now.
