A review by tyunglebower
Mr. Dickens and His Carol by Samantha Silva

3.0

A fun book and an easy read. Atmospheric, with vivid descriptions that do not smother.

It gets a tad repetitive or sluggish in the middle, but the overall whimsy, for both creation and for Christmas in particular makes those sins easier to forgive.

A well-intentioned romp through an alternate history of a beloved man and his writing of a beloved story. Worth the time and effort, any season of the year.
