I was surprised at how it ended, but in the back of my mind, I kind of expected it.
This book was surprisingly hard for me to read, not because I found it boring but because of Dorians looks. To call a man beautiful is a terrible thing to me, so I literally had to force myself to continue reading each time I tried, but I never got very far into the story. A few days ago, I found a dramatic reading of this book and it's thanks to it that I've (finally) finish the book.
