annietaber 's review for:

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens
3.5
dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Kinda funny to go back to the source after watching/hearing this story for a lifetime, especially considering there’s not much development how/why Scrooge changes beyond him saying that he’ll heed the Spirits’ lessons as they’re dragging him around (and mostly to get out of things). But, this was a perfectly charming book to carry around with me this weekend in London and particularly perfect to read with a christmas cocktail at a bar
