The Peculiar Society of Readers
Meet the minds behind the marginalia — mysterious, illustrious, and slightly unhinged in their devotion to Victorian suspense.
Mx. Tiddlywink
Lurker of footnotes. Claims to have once seen Wilkie Collins in a dream.
The Duke of Cliffhangers
Only reads aloud in gaslight. Suspiciously good at Victorian trivia.

Will duel anyone over the Oxford comma. Keeps tea on a holster.
Lord Poppycock
Hasn't read any of the books yet. Trying his best.
