The Reformatory

This book was tough for me to get through. At 570 pages, it felt too long. I usually finish a book in a week, but this one took me almost two weeks. It was labeled as horror, but it read more like historical fiction. Once I started thinking of it as historical fiction, I enjoyed it more, especially the ending. However, there were a lot of backstories that I think could have been left out to make the book shorter and the pacing faster. I would still recommend this book but with some warning!
