found this in a free library in st. paul so now im straight up reading it

i can smell the big reveal coming a mile away

in a shocking turn of events this book gets DUMBER

FINALLY picking this up again. i love intergenerational witches!

stupid but epic as fuck setting and cool historical facts. dan brown has proved these two things can be true at once

this is kind of stupid but it is keeping my attention

murders in the rue morgue! i realized halfway that i did know how this story ended but im still glad i read it

this has interesting ideas but i just can’t get rly invested

this book is so magical and poignant i’m eating it up

i fear this book is not eating BUT it’s also not awful #stationeternitytraumaisreal

ligeia was the last short story! sad, macabre, substance abuse aka new york’s hottest club

descent into the maelstrom - sick ass title, so so boring

witchyyyy

poe LOVES to bury a bitch alive. i didn’t know there was legitimate public fascination with this though…victorians were crazy

masque of the red death + the oval portrait = back to back bangers

“It’s your body, you can treat it however you please. The only area where you’re free to do just as you like. And even that doesn’t turn out how you wanted.”

i think this book did a lot of interesting things story-wise and structurally but it simply was not for me. i rly rly liked the first third but the rest fell off for me. which feels stupid to say bc this got the nobel prize in literature but yeah

this book is freaky
