Tomorrow, my Victorian lit class is finishing Our Mutual Friend. I'd say 85% are fully finished with it--not bad--and the others are within striking distance. I assigned 200 pages a week, less than I have in the past, but more than my current students are used to reading. (They take religious studies in the morning and academic classes until 8 or 10 at night, so we can't ask for as much homework.) Audiobooks help, as do weekly written check-ins (not quizzes but accountability).
