Rating: 9.5/10
The first time I read this book was actually for school. I have to admit, I loved studying this book. The writing is amazing, and so is the aesthetic, which, considering Wilde ascribed to aestheticism, shouldn’t be that much of a shock. The book is exciting, complex, thrilling, and beautiful. Following the entrance of Dorian Gray into upper class English society, the book allows you an intimate portrayal of that setting. The characters are captivating. The book draws an intricate study of the morals and philosophies of the characters, making it a fascinating read. I personally loved it. I doubt you’ll regret reading it.
