Loved it loved it loved it loved it.
Read this for my AP Lit class and thought it was SO GOOD. Very challenging for me to read at first but after I got used to it and started to get invested I loved it!!
Some of my fav aspects were the allusions to the Bible and how that plays into dickens perception of the world. UGH I could talk ab it for so long istg. I love the characterizations. I think dickens does a pretty good job keeping characterizations consistent (except with Pross) and I think that adds a lot to the story.
