i've reached the shoe-dropping portion of this book, so it's certainly becoming more exciting, but i still just don't know if it's working for me. Hungerstone purports to be a retelling/reimagining/expansion/whatever of Carmilla with explicit lesbianism, but the original Carmilla, with its veiled language, actually comes across as more queer to me. crazy how that works!

oh man… the start of this is tedious. feels like a caricature of a #depressed woman with #trauma. (we all have dead parents get over it!! JOKE.) despite somewhat elevated floral language, i’m reaching for my wallet to pull out my “written for dumb people” card (but it’s not all the way out yet! there’s still time!) sort of grim to read alongside Jane Eyre tbh
