Overall pretty good! A little spooky, definitely Gothic. Glad she didn't die for a stupid tower that she found ugly lmao

I loved this Victorian shirt story. I know some would find it fairly cliche, but I found it to be a suspenseful and interesting read. I was compelled to see what was going to happen to the protagonist, a wealthy girl from a royal lineage. I enjoy the different vocabulary from the 1800s, the words and varying definitions/contexts challenge me to see the words in a different light.
