Reviewing Novels written by Charles Dickens

Posted by merrygrace on December 2, 2008

Hi everyone, I’m MerryGrace, Jahothanan’s sister. I promised Jahothanan I would post on his blog one day and I decided that today would be that day.

I wondered what I would write about on this blog and I decided on reviewing books. Being a Dickens fan I am going to read and review all of his novels, (except for the ones that are not in our library system) and review them chapter by chapter and give you some opinions I have about them. If anyone would like to look up historical facts about Charles Dickens, feel free to comment about them. I know that a lot of people do not like reading Charles Dickens because he gets wordy, however, since I read Jane Eyre in four days, a 400 page book, I will hopefully be able to get through them all without boring everyone. Some of Dickens books are almost a thousand pages long, so it will take me a lot longer to read them than it took me to read Jane Eyre.  I may review a couple chapters at a time rather than make myself ridiculous in reviewing one chapter at a time. I love Dickens stories and  hope that my reviews will encourage others to read his books as well.

If there is a book anyone would like me to start with, let me know.

    I think you should start with something familiar and short like A Christmas Carol.

    That is a good idea since Christmas is right around the corner

    Sorry everyone, I have finals next week so I won’t be able to start my review until Wednesday.
