In connection with R.I.P. X, the Estella Society is hosting this group read along of The Quick, by Lauren Owen. I had not planned to join in, but another blogger (Belle), mentioned that she was going to look for a copy. I can’t resist a read along when my favorite people are involved. So, I got myself a copy and I am ready to go!

Goodreads has this to say about the book:

For fans of Anne Rice, The Historian, and The Night Circus, an astonishing debut, a novel of epic scope and suspense that conjures up all the magic and menace of Victorian London.

Hello! I am so there. Doesn’t it sound good? Will you be reading it too?

The original post says the details will be noted over at Fig and Thistle but as of this writing, I haven’t seen the linky post yet. Nevertheless, I am reading along.
