Pip 🍄 reviewed Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu
Short, not gay enough, but thrilling when it was
4 stars
Though it could and deserved to be much, much gayer; it was very enjoyable. Besides the out of nowhere classist and racist remarks very obviously shoehorned in by the author that didn't even affect the story and we're completely unnecessary, it presented the kind of queer relationship you develop as a child, innocent but passionate and desperate almost. And that definitely made my heart race like the good old days.

@snowcrash lol I forgot about my account for a while but I hope you read it! You definitely won't regret it regardless of the emotional tumble it will give you :'). And from a greek perspective it does a wonderful job keeping and showcasing the ancient greek setting. I read it in greek and I couldn't tell it had been written by a foreigner. I've seen quite a few cases where the modern writing style or some vocabulary and interactions ruin the immersion but Madeline Miller is a master at respecting and understanding the time period. And as a greek person it was rly refreshing to see, that's why I picked up some of her other books as well
