A review by ninoreads
A Christmas Carol and Other Holiday Treasures by Charles Dickens
3.0
Firstly, Word Cloud Classics are such a pleasure to the eye.
But: It's a good collection of stories I maybe wouldn't read separately. There were some stories I enjoyed and some that made it hard for me to push through. But what I did love was the moral of all the stories. They still are up to date and something to keep in mind.
I wonderd though, if the language, when aimed at the broader and often poorer audience of Dickens, wasn't to elite sometimes. Since I'm no native english speaker I found some wordings difficult to understand and follow. Hence, I wondered if it maybe was the same for some people as well.
