For the last spin, I read Dracula and I'll surely review the one I'll get from this spin.

I generally like maths and I really enjoy novels that include some (like The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa). I've enjoyed immensely the other novels of Elizabeth Gaskell that I've read, so I hope that Wives and Daughters will be a great choice, as well!
