No one I‘ve ever read (or listened to) writes characters as well as Dickens! #whattheDickens @Cuilin

Cuilin “And the popular prejudice runs in favor of two” that is perfection!!! now

#LiteraryCrew

Chapter a day reading seems to be working for me right now. I‘ve broken down the tagged book into one or two daily chapters to see if I‘m more successful with my second attempt of reading Vilette. Thought I‘d share my plan in case others want to try that approach.

@Librarybelle

Librarybelle Thanks for sharing! 18h
Sargar114 Great idea! 18h
Cuilin This is fantastic thank you. I pulled out my copy and had a little cry as I last read it when I was nursing my baby girl, now 25 years old. 😢 13h

Deblovestoread @Cuilin The books that are with us during certain times certainly produce memories and emotions. All bittersweet. 13h

I‘ll be starting this audiobook tomorrow for #whattheDickens @Cuilin

Cuilin I‘ve the same one ready to go!! I‘ve an Oxford hard copy too. This one isn‘t as long as Copperfield. 23h
Texreader @Cuilin Thank heavens but it‘s still 34 hours! 😉 21h
CatLass007 I have this audiobook too. In another post @Cuilin said there are 65 chapters, which I guess is referring to the print version. The audiobook has 28 chapters. I usually put my sleep timer on “end of chapter.” I‘m going to have to pay more attention to the chapter breaks! 16h
Cuilin @CatLass007 I was joking with somebody else about listening to audiobooks at night and then having to redo some chapters the next day 😴 16h
CatLass007 That‘s no joke. That‘s why I always set the sleep timer. 15h

#WhatTheDickens @cuilin @Texreader

Nicholas Nickleby has 65 chapters. Read at your own pace and discussion will be at the end of March.

Bookwormjillk I tried the last one on audio and the voice was so soothing I kept falling asleep. I‘m getting this one on kindle! 2d
Daisey I‘m going to try to continue, but I‘m not sure I‘ll be able to fit this one in during these next couple of months. Please keep me on the list! 2d

Cuilin @Bookwormjillk Maybe some of it‘s going in subliminally and you will start having the speech pattern of an 18 century Victorian lady!!! 2d
Cuilin @Daisey 👍 2d
CatLass007 I didn‘t know about this group. There are a ton of free Charles Dickens books on Audible and I think I‘ve added them all to my library. I would love to actually listen to one of them. Please add me to your tag list. 1d
Cuilin @CatLass007 absolutely 👍 I do a combo 📖 &🎧 1d
CatLass007 That‘s a good idea. I found that some selections for #FellowshipOfTolkien work best that way. But between migraines and multi-tasking I generally just listen. 1d
dabbe Hoping I can keep up! 😅 1d

Book #2 of 2025: “Hard Times” by Charles Dickens

Oh, Dickens. I liked this one less than “A Tale of Two Cities” and more than “Great Expectations”. After 15 hours of travel that‘s all the review you get 😅
