“Oliver Twist” by Charles Dickens

⭐⭐️

Some people will hate me for saying this, but I really struggle getting through Charles Dickens’ novels in any form other than plays at the theatre. I loved being part of this musical in high school, but it was so hard to get through the book. I thought it would never end. I tried with a few of his other books and I just couldn’t finish them. His writing is just not for me, and I accept that.

I will say, I appreciated that he shed light on the horrible abuse orphaned children and women experienced during this time period, through no fault of their own.
