I do like american and british both. I did really like Lord of the Far Island by Victoria Holt and I loved Clara Wimberly books. As you can tell I loved Jane Eyre. Anyone have some books written like these types of novels that they would care to write down for me? Either British or American. I recently sent off for some by B.C. Warren but have not received them yet. Thanks in advance.
I'm with you!! You might try the extensive booklists on this link:
http://GothicJournal.com
Look for the ones that are historicals (no asterisk) with "(gothic)" after them. Those are precisely the ones you are seeking.
You would also enjoy utilizing the Gothic Romance Lending Library available on that website. The catalog is available online, and if you send an email to the librarians, they will suggest some excellent titles/authors that fit the profile you're seeking.
Hope you find this helpful!
