Did this as an audiobook which I would recommend. I don’t always know exactly what as happening but was very funny!

 Took me six years and a few attempts before I finally was able to keep reading this and not put it down. Dickens' first effort, it's a bit rough in places, but all of the elements of his later great works are there -- inventive language, plenty of unforgettable characters, laugh-out-loud humor, and biting social commentary. And of course considerable length. Although it occasionally dragged, overall it was an enjoyable romp. 

I held off on reading this for years and years, thinking it was going to be boring and dry...which was absurd. Almost as absurd as every single occurrence in this book. I love you Dickens...you make me giggle.

I love Dickens, but this wasn't a favorite. I found it fairly tedious.
