Posted: Wed Dec 03, 2025 4:19 pm
Hello! This is my post for the 'Bah Humbook' challenge!
Past Book-
-Title of the book: The Picture of Dorian Gray
-Authors: Oscar Wilde
-Genres: Gothic Horror
-Short summary of the story: About a man who wants his youth to last forever, and ends up wishing for that, which puts his soul into a painting, and he does a lot of bad things and ruins a lot of people, before finally becoming fed up and attempting to destroy the painting.
-Good points / bad points: I thought it was pretty good, a bit hard to read but overall better than it could have been. I liked the sensory detail, as well as the horror elements.
