Charles Dickens is an author who people sometimes put off reading expecting the language to be difficult or confusing. Some readers are slow to read ‘the classics’ in fear that it will be too much of a struggle to read. Listen to me now – read Dickens. Charles Dickens is easy to understand, witty, and generally a very enjoyable read. I love reading A Christmas Carol at Christmas time as it embodies the spirit of the season and makes it feel like Christmas time.

Something about this story really appeals to me. I especially like the Ghost of Christmas Past section, because I think Scrooge's love story is very touching. It doesn't even need to be Christmastime for you to enjoy this story (or the movie version, starring Patrick Stewart as Scrooge!).

I had never read A Christmas Carol and listened to the fabulous recording of it by Jim Dale (he also reads Harry Potter). High recommend.

I can’t tell if this was boring due to me always associating it with school, or just because it was. I struggled to get through it but nonetheless had an alright time.
