Not sure how I feel about this one yet. It is beautifully written but there is not much plot to this novel. All the tension (and there is a lot) comes from the internal struggles, imaginings, delusions- from the psyche of the disturbed and disturbing Mrs March. I would go as far as to say there are some psychological horror aspects to this story, the imagery is potent and left me feeling quite uncomfortable.

I knew Elizabeth Moss had lost her ever loving mind, but this just... added fuel to that fire. I put down mystery but it was far from it. You could tell where this poor woman was heading by a mile. Mrs. March has a lot of mental problems you will see and if RAPE is a trigger for you, well I will spoil this bit, she was aroused by it. Take that how you will. I did feel bad for the woman, I am going to assume that her mental state has a lot to do with how she was raised.
The amount of praise it is getting makes me think it was glammed over because Elizabeth Moss had put her two cents in on it.
