Starting Monday, October 17th, the Gothic Literature Classics Circuit Tour will begin. Gothic Literature pertains to those works written before 1840, as defined by the lovely Rebecca, host of the Classics Circuit. My post, Mysteries of Udolpho, is scheduled for October 30th. I've posted the entire schedule below, so please be sure to check out some of these fabulous old novels as reviewed by some equally awesome bloggers.
Happy Halloween :)
