Please share with the group your thoughts on this classic story.

I am still not sure if I have finished this book. I know I was suppose to read it for an English class but I really don't remember the ending. I don't know if I own a copy or not. I will get back to it eventually. I prefer Oliver Twist and A Tale of Two Cities when it comes to Dickens.

This was the first Dickens I read and I have read it twice, in high school and again in college. My interest in reading it was piqued after watching the old black and white movie one night while babysitting.

I have enjoyed other books read by him as well: A Christmas Carol, Oliver Twist and A Tale of Two Cities. There are others in Mount TBR I hope to get to some day.
