Yesterday I listened to
Mr. Dickens and His Carol, by Samantha Silva, narrated by Euan Morton. It's a novel about how Dickens came to write
A Christmas Carol; I enjoyed it, but I wish I knew how much of it was pure invention and how much of it was based on truth. (The print version of the book has an author's note that presumably addresses this--why not include it in the audiobook, for gosh sakes? I absolutely hate it when audiobooks omit author's notes and other explanatory backmatter in historical fiction!)
Anyway, the book was enjoyable and charming. Today I may ask Alexa to read
A Christmas Carol. Or maybe I'll just listen to Christmas music; who knows.
