My favorite Dickens work is 'The Pickwick Papers'.
Loved it. Tragic love story.This. Ditto and loved it back then.
It's a favorite of mine, too. I gave an unabridged copy to a friend of mine. His little girls wound up using it as a prop in their games; it became their big book of witch's recipes and spells!In all seriousness, The Count of Monte Cristo is among my favorite books... ever.
