Thirtieth challenge finish of the year.
I just finished this afternoon, and really enjoyed it. I hadn't read anything by this nineteenth-century author before. This was originally serialized in a Victorian periodical in England. And I believe I remember that when published in book form (in 1855?) there were some rewrites or additional chapters included. It came in at 498 pages, and I'm going to say it again, the font on those 498 pages must have been really small, because it took an age for me to finish. I read it on my Kindle, so I can't swear to that.
Strong characters, and even secondary characters were well developed and likeable for the most part. Glad I gave it a go for this prompt.
