I still want to do my re-read of A Tale of Two Cities. Just finished The Secret Garden.

However, I need to put in my two cents. I'm tempted to say Dickens but I'd have to go with Elizabeth Gaskell -- I loved North and South, and Wives and Daughters is one of my all-time favorites. So sad that she died before actually completing it!<br /><br />And I'm glad you finished Middlemarch, which is by far my favorite by Eliot.Karen K.http://karensbooksandchocolate.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-88252102415906692622012-07-06T23:06:19.875-04:002012-07-06T23:06:19.875-04:00oops faithhopecherrytea at*gmail.*comoops faithhopecherrytea at*gmail.*comFaith Hope and Cherryteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170392449995588653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-33935079782213660992012-07-06T22:59:14.826-04:002012-07-06T22:59:14.826-04:00oooo an uncovered lost work? def Jane Austen!

I just finished reading the Wilkie Collins...Oh-ho! I just finished reading the Wilkie Collins portion of the compilation novella I'm working through now (The Haunted House) - after this story and The Woman in White, I'm really starting to love this dude. Thanks for the chance at another great book! <br /><br />If it was announced tomorrow that a great Victorian novelists lost work had been found.. I think I'd secretly be hoping for something by Emily Bronte. I loved, loved, loved Wuthering Heights, and I've always been saddened that it's Emily's only novel - she has some poetry, too, but I'm not the biggest fan of poetry in general. I would be thrilled to read another long work from her, particularly as her sisters each managed to publish more than one novel. <br /><br />roofbeamreader(at)gmail(dot)comRoof Beam Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06792884580084363046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-87920346316444977872012-07-06T18:43:21.046-04:002012-07-06T18:43:21.046-04:00Don't enter me as I have my own copy, but I ju...Don't enter me as I have my own copy, but I just wanted to give you the heads up that Reading Rambo has loosely thought about hosting a Moonstone readalong in August in case you're interested. :)christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749333368560606659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-18942305145776814922012-07-06T18:35:16.730-04:002012-07-06T18:35:16.730-04:00I would love win this book, I just finished The Wo...I would love win this book, I just finished The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins. Thank you for this opportunity.<br />An unpublished novel by a Victorian author previously not found, I would choose George Eliot. I am currently reading Silas Marner and I so love her writing!Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09693346981997723405noreply@blogger.com
