It was an interesting experience, reading something from one of my favourite authors that was so clearly formative rather than the finished product that I'm used to.

I'm reading 'The Golden Notebook' by Doris Lessing, which is taking a little while as it's quite long and is one of those books that needs to be read with attention and thought. I've had some books from BookMooch this week so will hopefully do an 'In My Mailbox' this weekend. xxx Slower than yours, but steady!

I've added the rest of the juvenilia to my various wishlists, so hopefully I'll be able to report back on whether that's any better. How are your reading endeavours going?

I'm not sure, after reading your review, that I want to read the whole thing when I could be reading something better-written, but I'm grateful for the summary! It's interesting, for me, more from a historical point of view. The Brontes are endlessly fascinating. It half makes me want to do the Victorian MA and dissertate on Charlotte's development as a writer. Only half, though! I trust you haven't changed your mobile number, but, in case you have, happy birthday! xxx I’d never even heard of this.
