RIP Booklikes.

Reading progress update: I've read 78%.

The Moonstone - Joy Connolly, Wilkie Collins

On the one hand, I really love the way that Wilkie Collins has constructed this book, with the "story" at the beginning, told from the perspective of Betteredge, who is a fantastic character, and then with the additional narratives at the end, that provide the perspectives of the additional characters.

 

Miss Clack is a peach. 

 

However, on the other hand, I want to shake Collins and yell at him to get on with it man. I'm at 78% and I am ready for this book to be finished. I remember this sensation from the first time that I read this book as well.

 

I will finish this book today. I am setting aside everything else to get it done.
