My husband and I are on a small road trip to visit the in-laws for the weekend and we decided to make a small detour on the way up! Ended up at a delightful little bakery called What The Dickens. They serve afternoon tea and different types of treats. I fell in love and don‘t know if I even want to get back on the road 😂🫖

Additionally, not sure if any #whatthedickens stragglers are interested, but I'm planning to continue working my way through Dickens. Joined a GR group just starting Little Dorrit, so I'll be reading this over the next few months, if anyone is inclined. @Lcsmcat @BarkingMadRun

Lcsmcat I‘m pretty committed in January (and have read Dorrit recently) but I‘d love to join you for other Dickens works. Do you mind continuing to tag me? 2y
quietjenn @Lcsmcat Sure thing! 2y
BarkingMadRead Tag me on the next one for sure! 2y

TheBookHippie What a pretty copy. 2y
batsy Yes, that's a pretty edition! 2y

Finished Pickwick tonight and am entirely pleased with it. What a satisfying book and what a good egg was Mr. Pickwick. I so enjoyed sharing in his adventures and am already looking forward to my next Dickens. #whatthedickens

EvieBee Yay! What an accomplishment! 💕💕 2y
merelybookish Good work! 2y
LeahBergen This is one I‘ve always been meaning to read. 🙄 2y

Butterfinger @BarbaraBB I have 9 more to go. I don't think I will have to carry over to next year like I did for Europe. 2y
BarbaraBB That is so good! I find Asia a lot harder than Europe last year! 2y

And they all lived happily ever after - even Job Trotter! I thoroughly enjoyed this early Dickens. His humor shines through and you can see the themes that are to occupy his pen for years. Thanks for the inspiration @Cuilin and all the #whatthedickens readers. Especially @BarkingMadRun for keeping me company through the world of Pickwickians.

Linsy I need to try! They mention it in Little Women and I've always been curious, but I've never read longer than a short story by Dickens! I'm a bit nervous. 2y
Lcsmcat @Linsy This might be a good one to try, as it‘s fairly short chapters, each of which is almost a short story. If it were written today I could see it being described as “linked short stories.” 2y

Lcsmcat @BarkingMadRun I lost count of where a chapter a day would be and just decided to keep reading. 🙂 2y
BarkingMadRead Works for me!! 2y
quietjenn Ah, I'm so far behind you all. But you definitely whet my appetite with your posts! 2y
