I read 'A Christmas Carol' every year to get me in the festive mood, and always enjoy the humour and the glimpse into Victorian London. Every year I vow to read more Dickens, but frankly, I don't know where to begin - I hated it so much at school that even the titles just put me off.
I was thinking of The Old Curiosity Shop as I work round the corner from what was supposedly the actual shop, but the plot does sound a little dull.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
