Two Envelopes And A Phone’s Reviews > The Little Stranger > Status Update

Just over a hundred pages left…which probably means I won’t get it done tonight. I’m anxious to see if it’s a finale without mercy, or something with a bit of leniency. Horror…yuh never know.

Was getting very sinister, and quite intriguing, Scroll of Saqqara vibes from this novel, for a while. But then, Betty's outburst at the end of the chapter I just finished suggested I'm not quite in Scroll of Saqqara territory...something a little different. It's a slow-mover, this one, but I'm enjoying it a lot.

Fingersmith was pretty cool, so I’m up for this. I was supposed to be reading a novel by a woman, every second choice, until Nov. 1st (at least)…but I decided I would read two books by men in a row, and now I’m going to read two books by women in a row. Is that reneging, are you pissed, do you consider me a liar, I hope not. Anyway, I’m looking forward to The Little Stranger, and then The Puppet Master.
