THE HOUSE OF STRANGE SECRETS
A gothic mystery set on the English moors and published in the last year of the nineteenth century. This first edition has a wonderful bat motif. Gilt lettering on pictorial cloth (London: Sands & Co.1899). #Booksky

I don't have an opinion about Bluesky's warning labels as a rule. It's good to be able to filter out content you don't want to see.
But I do think it's dumb that Lon Chaney Jr was labeled "explicit or potentially disturbing media" while Chloë Grace Moretz drenched in blood got nothing.
