My favorite is 'A Christmas Carol' with 'Oliver Twist' running a close second.

My favourite book by far is...
OLIVER TWIST
I love that book and can't believe it took me so long to get around to read it. I love how he involves all the characters in the book and as a reader I managed to create a vivid picture of the story in my mind.

Mine would have to be Hard Times as well! Oh, but Great Expectations is also a really close runner-up.

It's not on your list, but David Copperfield is one of my favorite books I've ever read. I was excited when I read somewhere that it was Dickens' personal favorite as well. I admit I've never read Christmas Carol, I should get on that!

A Christmas Carol.

Unbelievably, I have not read A Tale of Two Cities.

Maybe it's time...

David Copperfield failed to resonate with me when I was forced to read it in high school (and all the other classes got to read Tale of Two Cities). What about it did you like so much / worked so well for you?

Oliver Twist for the book and A Christmas Carol for the movie or play.
