I wonder how many 18 year olds would have any idea what our posts are all about, or care. Or worse, how many Dickens' books have been pulled from library shelves for being too 'woke'. John
I read a ton of Dickens when I was 11 or 12, and David Copperfield was probably my favorite. Haven't read any Dickens lately, but I do still like him. Not an English teacher (I am 18, after all ) but I love literature and read somewhat obsessively.

I'm currently reading Lord of the Rings for my fourth time (I am not ashamed to be a nerd) but maybe I should revisit Dickens when I'm done.
