Finished "Great Expectations". Great story with a twist, masterfully told.

Finished Dombey & Son. A novel that I had never heard of, but an unexpected pleasure to read.

Finished Bleak House. Great story! On my way to David Copperfield, but there's a couple of other books I have to read first.

Finished "Barnaby Rudge". Loved it!

Finished "A Tale Of Two Cities" published 1859 (same year as Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species"). First thing I've ever read of Dickens, although I've seen several series based on his novels on TV. I thought that he was more "wordy", but he's actually very readable. Wonderful story, and approved by Thomas Carlyle, who literally wrote the book about the French Revolution.
