Victorian Psycho
What made Victorian Psycho stand out was the subversion of the classic gothic governess. Winifred, the governess plays an anti hero with a penchant for violence. The murders she commits are disturbing and graphic, however they are followed with comical reactions. Narrated from Winifred's perspective, Victorian Psycho provides a unique and entertaining voice to the modern gothic. This book has every trigger warning imaginable--most of it perpetuated by an unapologetic female character. While this story is definitely not for everyone, I really loved this brand of feminism. As a lover of gothic horror and strong female characters, I read this book quickly. I've also posted this review on Goodreads. Thanks to Netgalley for my review copy.
