If Dracula Daily has been really working for you, I highly recommend checking out Daily Lit (https://www.dailylit.com/browse/classics/). I've been using it for years to get nuggets of classic books delivered to me in email daily. They have paid and free books. I've only used the free books.

You get to choose when you get your installment and how much you get.

It's not exactly the same because not all novels are epistolary like Dracula and all of Tumblr isn't also reading along (and even Dracula would be different because it's been untangled and set chronologically and by day by Dracula Daily), but it works for me. Try Gulliver's Travels or another great classic novel.

The Unhoneymooners // Christina Lauren

“You think I’m cute?”

“In a gross way.”

[maevns]

Through it all, I stare at the boy on the throne. He maintains his mask. Jaw clenched, lips pressed into a thin, unforgiving line. Still fingers, straight back. But his gaze wavers. Something in his eyes has gone far away. And at his collar, the slightest gray flush rises, painting his neck and the tips of his ears. 

He's terrified. 

For a second, it makes me happy. Then I remember―monsters are most dangerous when they're afraid.

BOOKS I READ IN 2018:  Anna Dressed in Blood, Kendare Blake

“But hey, at least we’ll have this strange story to tell, love and death and blood and daddy-issues. And holy crap, I’m a psychiatrist’s wet dream.”

books read in 2018 - The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

“Everyone knew if you wanted inside someone’s pants, you didn’t start in the bedroom. That was what seduction, romance, hand-holding, and dancing were for. That was what ice cream kisses were for.”

Books read in 2018: The Time Machine by H.G. Wells

“The fact is, the Time Traveler was one of those men who are too clever to be believed: you never felt that you saw all round him; you always suspected some subtle reserve, some ingenuity in ambush, behind his lucid frankness.”

Books I’ve Read in 2018 → The Hating Game by Sally Thorne 5/5.

Nemesis (n.) 1) An opponent or rival whom a person cannot best or overcome; 2) A person’s undoing; 3) Joshua Templeman.

Lucy Hutton and Joshua Templeman hate each other. Not dislike. Not begrudgingly tolerate. Hate. And they have no problem displaying their feelings through a series of ritualistic passive-aggressive manoeuvres as they sit across from each other, executive assistants to co-CEOs of a publishing company. Lucy can’t understand Joshua’s joyless, uptight, meticulous approach to his job. Joshua is clearly baffled by Lucy’s overly bright clothes, quirkiness, and Pollyanna attitude.

Now up for the same promotion, their battle of wills has come to a head and Lucy refuses to back down when their latest game could cost her her dream job…But the tension between Lucy and Joshua has also reached its boiling point, and Lucy is discovering that maybe she doesn’t hate Joshua. And maybe, he doesn’t hate her either. Or maybe this is just another game.
