I read it and enjoyed it but it definitely isn't my favourite Dickens, not because it's bad (it certainly is not) but because he wrote better things (in my opinion). Great Expectations, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities, Nicholas Nickleby, Hard Times, to name a few, have been more enjoyable to me than Oliver Twist or Pickwick Papers. Maybe his more mature works tend to be more refined?

Do look for HarryT's amazing ebook editions of every Dickens work. I'm about to start The Old Curiosity Shop.
