    I’m about 200 pages in. When I began, I thought the author was writing the female characters pretty on cue for his time, as weak, feeble-minded. Now, I’m really into Marian’s rage at the power men have over women.

    Definitely a book I enjoyed, though I need to read it again.
    One question, you seem to do an inordinate amount of reading.
    Would love to see a video on your reading habits, unless you've already made one.
    I manage about 2 hours a day! 😉👍

    I couldn't get in this book but will give it another chance. I liked his Moonstone, maybe I just wasn't in the right mood.

    Great reading. This one sounds really family. I wonder if I read it or part of it a long time ago and just forgot. Peace!

    I haven't read this one, but have it somewhere. I didn't know too much about it, but I think I will get to it this summer, sounds like something I would like.

    Sounds like a pre-TV, pre-radio soap opera....

    Squeal! One of my favourite books and one of my favourite authors. ❤️ sensation novels. Collins, unlike Dickens, could write women well. I’ve had the same problem with penguin hardcovers that the design rubs off. I should look on the bright side as you do and appreciate their sturdiness. Deb

      Yeah, this is one of my favorites as well. I am fond of Wilkie Collins. His life was even more interesting than his books!

    I've put this one on hold after not finishing The Moonstone 😁 Probably should have started with The Woman in White. Thanks for the review!

    I think we should team up in our adventure hats and go explore something creepy. This one sounds good. I love sensationalism.

      It is definitely sensational! An adventure team up would be fun!

    I saw The Woman In White is on Amazon Prime Video, do you know if it's an adaptation of this book?
