I finished "Great Expectations". Was not disappointed!

Now I'm trying to decide what to read next. All those Amazon samples are tempting--but I'm also thinking about trying "Middlemarch" again. I've tried several times over the years, but I've never been able to get past the 1st few pages. I've been told that "Middlemarch" is one of the greatest novels--or one of the greatest English novels--or one of the greatest English novels written on a Tuesday--or something like that

Any suggestions for a followup to Great Expectations?

Thanks,
R.L.
