(a very high 3.9)
Le Fanu writes beautifully, perfect blend of sweet, melancholic sceneries and lively, disturbing characters. The voice is direct and speaks in false positives which leave you wondering… Very spooks. Carmilla is enchanting, and revelations surrounding her enigma and history were enough at each chapter to keep the pages turning. The end speaks to this novel being the ultimate, gothic, mystical vampire handbook. love, love, loved it.
