This story was, well, average. It gave the reader a lot of questions all throughout the story, which was intruiging. But in the end when all the lose ends were tied, it just seemed boring. Yes, she left her love rotting in her home, yes she was a very mysterious person, but I was so excited for what could have been!
When they spoke of the fowl odor, I immediately thought body. When they said that the negro and her were very shelted and mysterious, I thought secret. When she seemed to be going crazy, I thought murderer! I was really hoping for a cellar full of bodys and that she was a mad killer, instead she was just mad.
One thing that bothered me was when the text used words for numbers larger than nine. Im no grammar expert, but I was always taught that 1-9 should be written with numbers unless begining a sentence. In this story they wrote things like "seventy-four" and "eighty". Maybe Im a purist, but it just makes sentences more fluent.
Overall this was an enjoyable read. It kept the readers on their feet and was easy to follow. I would have done things differently, but maybe thats why Im a Biology major.
