My mom read this to us one Christmas. Pretty good, and not nearly so hard to read as some of his others!
I know it’s a classic, I didn’t love the movie adaptations but thought it might be more tolerable as the audiobook. Hugh Grant is brilliant but I just don’t like the story, soooo grumpy.

A classic and great reminder of the importance of caring about this life and those around us WHILE we’re living it, and not waiting until after it is done.

Durch unzählige Filmversionen dieser Geschichte kannte und liebte ich die Handlung bereits vor dem Lesen. Auch wenn das Buch auf Englisch war und Klassiker für uns/mich in der Wortwahl ja nicht immer ganz zugänglich sind, habe ich das Lesen nun wahnsinnig genossen. Der Redemption Arc, die Charakterentwicklung und Reise von Scrooge hat mir passend zu Weihnachten einiges (an Positivität und Stimmung) gegeben!
