Great idea! Just subscribed to get some Dumas in my mailbox.

A preview would be nice. Something to get a feel of how long a chapter might be. Also time is a fickle thing. Your 3pm might differ from mine. You might want to include the timezone somewhere. Finally: What's up with the blots that appear onclick in the upper quarter of the page?

Thanks! I get the timezone from your browser, so it should work as expected for you (if not, it's a bug, please let me know by replying the email). But enough people asked me about the timezone that it is worth adding it explicitly in the UI.

The ink drops are just a quirky effect that I found cool to add. Hopefully it didn't disrupt your experience (it works better on desktop btw).
