"As always, Charles Dickens does not fail to disappoint. I first read this book in high school but can't remember what I thought of it. Having seen about 4 versions of A Christmas Carol last December, it was interesting to reread the book to see how the movies treated the original version. There are many quotable quotes in this book and I have lots of favourites. Great for a read at any time of the year, rich with allegory and beautiful turn of phrases, I highly recommend reading this book." — Sheryl (5 out of 5 stars)

" A bah humbug... A great Christmas tale that everyone can enjoy "
" Loved it. Got me in the Christmas spirit! "
" What can you say about this book that hasn't already been said? Not a lot other than that it is one that is a must for all avid readers to read at some point which I can now say I have. A great read for these cold winter nights. "
" Another of those books read in my youth and seen only on the surface. An apt lesson for us, even today: do as you would be done by; you are not an island. "
" Classic love going back to it "
" Read this every year with some of my students. It is one of my favorites. "
" Excellent short story. Finished it just before an adaptation started on tv. The book was so much better could only watch for about 10 mins. A master storyteller. "
" It's a very good story to read on one winter's night. "
" that's amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like it! I like stories abut christmas! "
" A true classic. So good! Very touching. "
" I read this most Christmas seasons - to get in the "Spirit" of Christmas. I enjoy almost everything I've read by Dickens. I enjoy his style, and I feel I am reading words of value when I read his novels. "
" Also had to read this for GCSE English. This one however I found incredibly mundane and boring. Call me scrooge but whatever. There's too many A Christmas Carol stories around and it annoys me. "
" Not a very long book, but in the number of pages Dickens manages to load more life-changing literature than any other. It's no wonder it's such a classic, in the true spirit of Christmas. An absolute beacon of literature and what it's supposed to be. "
" Who doesn't love this Christmas Classic?!! "
" Probably my favorite Dickens novel yet of the four I've read. It's simple, it's charming. Not really containing any of Dickens's trademark humor. It's very short, and therefore a quick light read, perfect for the holidays! "
" I really enjoyed finally reading this story. After seeing it done in so many ways on the big and little screen, it was nice to read it. Definitely a quick read too! Could have read in one day if I gave myself a couple of hours to read. "
" Classic which I read often at Christmas time. "
" I love this story. I read the book every couple of years at Christmas and watch The Muppets Christmas Carol every year. "
" I can't believe I had never read this book before. What a great, quick, Christmas read! "
" Found out the other day that this revolutionized the celebration of Christmas. Just another reason it is a great novel. "
" In my personal opinion, Dickens is a master author. "
" I would say this is the greatest Christmas tale of them all and one I will never grow tired of. Scrooge is one of the greatest ever characters in English literature. "
" Love it. Charles Dickens just has a way with that pen. "
" Read it every Christmas :) "
