i LOVED this book so much, it's going on my favourites shelf ❤️ Parts of this were so beautifully written and I didn't want it to end.
I listened to the audiobook alongside reading this physically and would highly recommend the audiobook with tim curry, alan cumming and a few other cast members - it made the story so much more immersive!

(review juny 2007)Antes de todo, decir que leí el libro antes de ver la película. Me parece que es uno de los pilares de la novela de terror clásico con razón, tanto por su argumento como por la forma en que está narrado. Su estilo entre epistolar y dietario de diferentes personajes, provoca que el lector consiga meterse mucho más en la acción, teniendo algo así como una relación especial con los diferentes personajes de la novela. Aun el manido argumento, no tan manido en el momento de su creación, consigue que el lector disfrute de la lectura hasta la última hoja, sorprendiéndote y contagiándote con la atmósfera sombría que impera en el libro.
(Agosto: vi la película de Coppola, supuestamente basada en esta novela. No se parecen en nada, ni en el argumento ni los personajes. No me gustó demasiado).

I read this book because it's a favorite of someone I love. I was captivated. I read it in a day. It's clear to see why it's a classic and sparked a whole genre.
