I won't say! The only Dickens I've read is "A Tale of Two Cities" years ago and which I loved. He is one I keep moving up and down my list. The only reason I'm posting is I thought Harry and other Dickens lovers might be interested in this article I just read this morning...resulting in a move back to the top.

Interesting article - thanks.

I am particularly happy to have learnt a new word - 'aptronym' - excellent!

4/12.... purely by guesswork. Sadly I haven't gotten around to reading much Dickens.

You wouldn't care to suggest your favourite Harry, as something for me to start with?

I'd suggest either: Christmas Carol, Bleak House, or Great Expectations. Fascinating characters, interesting plots.
