The Manxman
Hall Caine
1884
This is serious Victorian novel about a love triangle and peasant life on the Isle of Man.
I had to take a break on this one, it is very well written, with an excellent story, but I just couldn't get into it. I'd like to finish it one day.
Vanity Fair
William Thackeray
1847
This is a Victorian novel satirizing English society.
This is an excellent book, and I was really enjoying it. I lost it, I think on the subway, when I was about 1/3 through. I need to get another copy.
