Trudy Brasure | 95 comments I haven't read Gissing or Thackeray yet, so those titles intrigue.

"Middlemarch" I tried and could not find any compelling reason to read past chapter ten. But I have heard that work lauded as the best English novel ever written.

I'd like to nominate Shirley, the novel Charlotte Bronte wrote after "Jane Eyre."
