Black Butler, Tome 1 by Yana Toboso
1.0
What a Dramatic Flop!
As I delved into the enigmatic world of "Black Butler," I found myself caught in a whirlwind of disappointment, akin to a tea party without the tea or the party. One star is too generous for this literary catastrophe, but alas, it is the lowest rating available.
Let's speak about the plot, shall we? It's as if the author threw a bunch of Gothic tropes into a blender and hit the "confusing mess" setting. Demonic contracts, Victorian England, and a sprinkle of supernatural nonsense - it's a recipe for disaster, not intrigue. The narrative jumps around like a caffeinated flea, leaving readers more bewildered than a cat in a cucumber patch.
"Black Butler" is a tragicomedy of errors, a masquerade ball where everyone forgot their masks and their manners. Save yourself the agony and spend your time on something more stimulating, like watching paint dry or counting the grains of sand on a beach.
