You have a great blog here and I am hoping that when my book blog gets up and running, it will be as good as yours :) Getting back on topic, I LOVE Wilkie Collins. I had never heard of him until I took a Victorian Lit class in college. The theme of the class was sensation fiction and two of the 8 books we read were by Collins: No Name and The Woman in White. Both books are awesome and I cannot recommend them enough! I just found your blog today and have gone back to the archives to get caught up!

If the plot gets exciting enough I'll probably switch to the book so I can finish it sooner though :) mee: I thought about getting the book, but the idea of switching between them annoys me (I’m easily confused and would probably get lost!).

I'm not huge on reading online for extended periods of time, but the DailyLit excerpts are so short that it doesn't bother me. I can usually finish them while I'm eating my bowl of Cheerios in the morning. Karenlibrarian: I haven’t heard of Mousehold Words, what’s that?
