  2. So I asked Marzia what her favorite book was it's the Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde another, fine piece of literature, and I understand exactly why Marzia loved this book, it has a meaningful, uh a meaningful story with sort of horror elements to it [...] It's extremely well-written, and I really really really enjoyed this book. I thought it was fantastic and I totally understand why it's Marzia's favorite book. I would rate this 4 out of 5.
