Review of 'Woman in White Annotated Wilkie Collins Best Book' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I am no longer unimpressed! I found the beginning boring, but the tie in later was good. This story, overall, was intriguing and engaging. My only disappointment in the end turned the Countess, but I can't go into details without making my review a partial spoiler, which I really don't want to do. I have read that this book and The Moonstone by the same author are the 1st 2 examples of ministries in English language novels. Although they are not either one "murder mysteries", they certainly both have mystery bases, and the way the story is presented and wound around is quite intriguing. I think I need to reread The Moonstone now it's been so long since I read it. It's kind of nice and refreshing to go back and read old classics…
