Becky, Becky, Becky... I can not believe you haven't read the Woman in White! that's a reread right? lol... you read so much so quickly you must wiz thru RIP !
Deslily, no, the Woman in White isn't a reread--though I did read the first fifty pages once :) I have also seen the old(er) movie adaptation of it.
The Woman in White is fantastic. As much as I love Nathaniel Hawthorne, I loathed The House of the Seven Gables.
I think the Nine Tailors might be my most favorite Peter Wimsey, unless it is Murder Must Advertise, or perhaps The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club. :<) Hard to choose.
I joined this year for the first time.
O man, great classics in the list! Jane Eyre and Frankenstein are two of my favorites two. The Woman in White - AWESOME!! His book Moonstone is cool too.
I really must get around to The Woman in White myself. I read The Moonstone last year and enjoyed it.
WOMAN IN WHITE was awesome! Hope you enjoy that book. I've read that recently and I had a great time!
I've been meaning to read Charles Dickens books. shame!and so far I have failed, but once Im right back on my track I will start reading it. Should be fun fun fun.

it's hard for me to imagine a book that you haven't read! and I hope you like the woman in white!
I hope you enjoy Jane Eyre as much as I did when I read it last year! Happy reading!
Yay :D So glad you're joining in again!!! And there's a few on there that you're sure to add to my list! I just finished A Tale Dark and Grimm for my first read :) I read that one because of you!! Loved it!
How about this? I haven't read Frankenstein yet! I'm doing the RIP challenge too. Maybe I'll have time to pick up Frankenstein and actually finish it this time. =O)
I saw the Josephine Tey title on your list. I'm listening to The Daughter of Time right now and really enjoying it.
I'm in also, can't wait. I have Woman in White also not sure if I will read it this year though, we will see.
Your list just seems so classy. :) Hope you have a ton of fun...like it's even possible to not have fun with RIP, huh? :D
