i knew i wasn't a fan of classical literature language but here i am reading this book. it wasn't overwhelmingly classical but the story was very quick and interesting to follow. points deducted because it mildly felt like anti-gay since carmilla was the one initiating all the flirting etc. but the other girly kept saying no and being so shocked and also because carmilla was essentially the villain/vampire.

this was really moving and i've never heard of the court cases of the ottowa girls so it was really interesting to hear about. my only complaint is that this was realllly melodramatic and there was excessive descriptions of people's appearances which i get is supposed to set the scene of how horrible the poisoning was but it was too much.
