In January I read: - Wuthering Heights - Heaven in advance - Words from the Cross - The Yellow Wallpaper - The Voyage - The Dead - Dare to be you (sounds like a self-help book, but it wasn't, more like a biography-ish book about sociopaths, really interesting)

How was the Incestuos Sister book? I just ordered a Time Traveler's Wife and wanted to know if that one was a good read It's way different than The Time Traveler's Wife. It's an illustrated novel - it's sort of like a children's picture book for adults, but with a lot more pages. It goes really fast though. I liked it a lot. The artwork reminded me of Edward Gorey (whom I adore) and it was a very dark, gothic, enjoyable tale.
