The picture of Dorian Grey is by far the most intelligent book I have ever read. Wilde’s victorian London is vivid and entrancing, seedy and sickening all at once. The characters have some of the most honest, achingly funny dialogue I have ever come across in any novel. […]

This is quite an unusual book, and I really enjoyed it for that reason. It is a murder mystery set in Tudor times, so there is a gripping story yet also a fascinating history lesson. The murder mystery aspect was very good with lots of twists and turns, and plenty to keep the […]
