The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins
4.0

This is the first Wilkie Collins book for me. I was very pleasantly surprised and wonder why I had not read any of his books before now. Though perhaps a little long, I enjoyed and way this book was written, especially through the personal accounts and perspectives of the different characters. The mystery was good and keep me interested throughout the book. I found it very interesting to read one of the first books of its type. Also the author conveyed snippets of what life and society was like at that time.
