Daniel Deronda by George Eliott
It's okay, but I am only up to like chapter ten out of like one hundred, so I think it will get better!.
But I just finished reading The Picture Of Dorian Grey!. That's interesting because Oscar Wilde was tried for it for bad behaviour, so for basically being gay, and you can seriously pick up all the homosexual undertones in it!. It's pretty interesting to imagine that in the eighteenth century or whenever it was written!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am reading Charm School by Susan Wiggs - I have read most of her stuff and it is usually good!. This is one of those reissues they do of old stuff after an author becomes a good seller and it is not her best!. I feel like I SHOULD read it since I have read all her others but I keep finding things to do instead!. I started the William Shatner biography and it just reminded me that he was a pile of pompousity! I also have a third in a series by an author who was promising in the first two and this one doesn't live up to it!. I think I am out of the mood to read but I know if I had the new Janet Evanovich here I would not be answering this question!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Throughout the book, Marcel's challenge is to peel back the layers of deception that lie between him and the truth as he struggles to determine his identity and his allies amid warring factions grasping for a kingdom!.
