read all the novels of charles dickens (read all 10 entries…)
got pickwick

got a nice penguin for cheap and have started reading

nice and easy… enjoying the comedy… though a tiny bit mean and slapstick, almost

I listened to Oliver Twist on a cross country drive. It’s LONG, I’m still in the middle of it. I like the humor, sometimes it’s surprising and sort of hidden, doesn’t slap you in the face. He’s good at caricatures of people.

there sure are a lot of long ones

great idea for a long trip

and i guess i like that once i get into a book… don’t have to worry about it ending too soon

and yes, i find his caricatures are a lot of fun

i enjoy that bit of meaness in his humor too
