I will definitely contact you when a new challenge is on board the summer of 2014. <br /><br />I love Anthony Trollope as well, I think he is often neglected as a great British author. Luckily I had a professor for "The British Novel" in college that adored Trollope. He introduced me to Barchester Towers and I always enjoyed how much he laughed at witty quotes from it.<br /><br />I should add on to this post (and will do in the future) that if anyone reads anything Victorian in the future, to come back to this challenge and post it. It would be great to still see what people are reading in the future - especially by author!Laura's Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13904763940307902364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521348297206014365.post-56214833609103636802012-12-27T03:48:35.159-06:002012-12-27T03:48:35.159-06:00No worries about not being so active here, I had m...No worries about not being so active here, I had my list of "who" to read each month and managed them all. It gave me great incentive to re-read many novels. I too am reading Little Women at the moment, and you mentioned A Christmas carol, well I read that too (prob for the 1st time, I have seen many TV versions, but if I had read it before it must have been long ago).<br /><br />OK, my all-time favourite (which was my choice before this challenge) is Anthony Trollope. His writing just makes me feel like reading out loud to share with others his witticisms and the sheer poetry of his writing.<br /><br />I've enjoyed both the previous challenge (Brontes)and this one. So thank you Laura, many a time we've enjoyed the same books, its great to share with like-minded people.<br /><br />I'm up for a 2014 challenge whenever, even if not for a full year. <br /><br />Good luck with your work sounds really interesting (I'm a biochemist).<br /><br />Could you add my email to a list to contact if you start another challenge? Would save me remembering to search for a new challenge<br /><br />All the best, I'll post my Dec review once I finish Little Women (LOL, I also dug out our copy of Little Men just like you!!)<br /><br />cheers<br />Julie in AustraliaAussie stitcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00955240144908309676noreply@blogger.com
