I feel bad but can't help it!<br />Anyway, was very interesting to hear what you thought and I can't wait to finish :)<br />AdamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-53505182434003183472012-01-24T10:30:16.428-06:002012-01-24T10:30:16.428-06:00Sherry - I laughed out loud at your comment!

I just wanted to shake David Copperfield and say, take a look at Agnes - she is so much more your type!<br /><br />That being said, I adored this book when I read it. I love Dickens characters and the life (good and bad) that he puts into them on his broad canvas.Laura's Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13904763940307902364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-2184378756366717902012-01-09T07:47:08.610-06:002012-01-09T07:47:08.610-06:00I read this back in high school and I really need ...I read this back in high school and I really need to revisit it.

She kind of had to die young because had she lived to be fifty or sixty, she would have been really insufferable.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04664642293286996220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-22194394313202968042012-01-07T11:03:37.381-06:002012-01-07T11:03:37.381-06:00I have learned to love Dickens too, but have only ...I have learned to love Dickens too, but have only read a handful of his books.

I have never been a fan of Dickens because I read "Great Expectations" in a literature class in highschool and *greatly* disliked it.<br />I just recently read "Oliver Twist" and that has started changing my opinion of Dickens. I have a copy of "David Copperfield" but have not yet made it very far in the book.Melindahttp://www.wholesomewomanhood.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-51256759790388788122012-01-06T15:12:28.269-06:002012-01-06T15:12:28.269-06:00I read this one last year and I really loved it.

I have avoided him ever since. <br /><br />It's nice to know that as an adult you have come to appreciate him. That means there is hope for me.<br /><br />Great Review.Moniquereadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548770404418294147noreply@blogger.com
