I mean the movie/musical versions are as well at times but the overall feel is more hopeful. Don't know if I'd read the book or not. Might just leave it and stay with my happy memories!Trish @ Between My Lineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08517849083417759188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-12212994854995893032013-10-04T19:27:31.185-06:002013-10-04T19:27:31.185-06:00I haven't read this one yet, and I'm not s...I haven't read this one yet, and I'm not sure I ever will. It seems to be one of those books that everyone thinks they know without needing to read it. I'm sure that's not the case, and maybe I'll read it someday, but it won't be soon. I think I would rather reread A Tale of Two Cities.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786139533776263328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-74806197383906225442013-09-30T22:56:35.103-06:002013-09-30T22:56:35.103-06:00Oh wow!

I read this book a long time ago, but watched the movie on dvd last year. I think it was a BBC production, and I loved it. I find Dickens' characters are often caricatures but still believable. <br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-76891304579358959992013-09-28T20:43:45.485-06:002013-09-28T20:43:45.485-06:00I loved A Christmas Carol even though my english t...I loved A Christmas Carol even though my english teacher stopped every paragraph asking a question...Which frustrated me! But I enjoyed reading the simple yet beautiful story of it. I have heard so much great things of Oliver Twist but never actually knew what it was actually ABOUT. So thanks so much of the review that i finally understand over what the story about. <br /><br />I'm glad it gets a happy ending. <3Delaneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936996358526377426noreply@blogger.com
