This book is sooo good I found out about it cus I’m a big Vincent Price fan and saw the movie first this book had me feeling so many emotions and I could not put it down however if u have triggers or if discrimination heavily bothers you in books please read the warnings going into this book knowing it was written in the 1940s and takes place in the 1840s America I knew there was gonna be racism and a lot of not pc stuff but there was still a lot that I was not prepared for so if u do have triggers read the content warnings first cus this book has a lot of stuff that could be potentially triggering

Both Miranda's future lovers suck so much that I think she would have lived better off alone. Better yet, that she would have gone to a university and grow up to be a very smart, fulfilled woman. Since the beginning she seemed like someone who needed to be way more estimulated than she was being and I believe that would have been possible if she had access to certain knowledge.
