“behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic” yeah…. i can’t believe i took so long to read this. adding yet another book to my all time favorites list in the year of 2025.
i wish i could intelligently discuss all the themes of this book bc there is just sooooo much to get into, but i will say, it was very interesting reading something that was written over a century ago in an age where this obsession with aesthetics and not “aging” is literally everywhere. time is truly a circle.
this book had everything!! complex and compelling characters, fantasy, tragedy, debauchery and some of the most beautiful lines of literature i have ever read. also, dorian was one of the most delightfully dramatic men i’ve ever read about and i both love and hate him.
now i need to read the uncensored version bc i need the gay undertones to be gay OVERtones

A collection of the pilot books for popular series, for those of us who love to follow a character's journey for as long as an author will let us! Some of the below series have heavily debated starting points and book read orders--in those cases the pilot was selected based on what seems to be the most popular approach.
