The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and other stories
Reviews

It was a somewhat shorter book than I expected but I thought overall it was pretty good.
I don’t think I would read it again but I’m glad that now I know the story and I think that more than the actual story itself and the events, I really like the symbolism of it and the message behind the story.
I would recommend reading it if you haven’t before but I would say that it’s a quick and easy read and probably not something super intense or interesting as books from a similar genre tend to be.

What happens to Mr. Utterson 😢

Quite straight forward theme, duality of man. Good and evil within each of us. Yin and Yang. I also wonder if Hyde's last name is a play of "hide", as in the hidden dark side, or I'm just looking way too much into it. Would be cool tho.

I really wanted to read this because of things I learned in my literature class. I liked the story and the ideas behind it

Wasn't the best, my favorite story from the collection was "The Body Snatcher". I think this one was worth 5 stars but overall 3.5/5.

Well worth the price of admission for "A Lodging" and "The Young Man With The Cream Tarts" alone, both of which belong on the highest shelf of the short-story cabinet.

I enjoyed these stories a lot more than I was expecting. I think Dr Jekyll and the Body Snatcher were my two favorites. 4 out of 5 stars.
