Book 62 The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins

6/10 Typically long winded Victorian novel. Good story idea and the opening is quite creepy, but it would have been twice the book if 1/3 the length. I understand that this was one of the original serials, hence the length, but it does drag in places. Maybe the comparison with House of Leaves (read this straight after) made it seem all a bit tame.
