The Tell-Tale Heart

I first read this in middle school English class with a teacher who absolutely adored Poe’s works. This is my favorite from him, and this re-read during spooky season was perfection and brought back many memories from reading it the first time- where I was, how I felt. I love how reading can do that for us.

I think I need to read some Edgar Allan Poe. It has been a looooong time for me too! Great review!

I think I'm gonna have to reread this one too. It's been ages, and I think I've gone long enough without reading some Poe. :)
I don't know if you read YA, but Mindy McGinnis had a book last year The Initial Insult that is a total homage to Poe, and the second book in the duology comes out next spring. I loved her Poe references.

What a great re-read! Wonderful review!
Jennifer, I too fell for Poe with this gem and it was in junior high like you! I love how you mentioned how a book can take us back to the time we first discovered it.. so true! It is like a magical power, isn’t it? Thank you for sending me back to junior high this morning and leaving me with a smile on my face, my friend.
I love Poe and it makes me very happy that his readership always rises in October! (Same with Ray Bradbury).
I've loved him since high school . I had to read The Raven and that was it . I was hooked!
Love your review, Jennifer! I was introduced to Poe by my grandfather, and remember this one still. I may have to add this one in sometime this month!
Love the review Jennifer. I read this many years ago and remember loving it. So glad you enjoyed it.
Great review, Jennifer!! One of the best! 💖
