A review by littletaiko
Hard Times by Charles Dickens

3.0

It's not often that I want a book to be longer, but this book could have been a tad longer with a bit more character development and I might have given this 4 stars. It's still a Dickens novel and therefore quite worth the time. This is Dickens mocking the Industrial Revolution and full of characters who are not as easily defined as "good" or "bad" as in some of his other novels. The rich vs poor themes still resonate today.
