Amazing wonderful book
5By dickensloverHow somebody could call this book boring I don’t know. It’s beautiful, thrilling, and whatever fool says it’s boring and a waste of time I don’t know. If I could chose one book in the whole world to save, I’d chose this one, and not miss any other one.Excellent Story!
5By Way2oldA much better read than the story told in the movie! Dickens is the same wordy guy as always, but the clever twists of the story are worth wading through. I’d love to see a modern movie of this book made!I LIKED IT.....KINDA

4By tour royal awesomnessA bit confusing at the language and time , as it being from a different tone period, but the end is satisfying!!!Very great story
5By _big.nate_Similar to Huckleberry Finn, Oliver Twist has great plot and characters all portraying the various classes and people of the time. Dickens does a very great job expressing the themes of poverty, nature v. Nurture, and portrayal of emotions from grief to affection. Definitely recommend to anyone. It’s a definite classic!Willams books are wonderful
