Mr. Dickens and his Carol was a sweet holiday novel, that definitely gave me all the Christmases of Yore feels🎄! I admit that it was fun to read a fictional story about Charles Dickens that spurred me to research further into his life. Did you know he and his wife had 10 children!!! And I thought had a gaggle😲!!!
Now I don't want to be a Scrooge (couldn't resist🤭), but... I admit I struggle with even the possibility of infidelity in any novel. So, when I spent much of the novel worrying about the muse described in the blurb, I probably lost some of the spirit intended by the author🤷♀️. This is not a spoiler, as she is mentioned in the description, but this is the reason I rarely read the summaries ahead of time - it ruins parts of novels for me😩.
Overall, in the spirit of the season, it is one you might enjoy just for the Christmasy feels I mentioned! No bah humbugs allowed🎅!
