Not for me: Oliver Twist
Mixed feelings on Oliver Twist, but I can see why people love it. A couple of sections could have been trimmed without losing anything. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Didn’t work for me: Oliver Twist
Oliver Twist has a strong core idea — the execution mostly works. The middle drags and repeats the same tension a bit too long. Not perfect, but it did enough to keep me turning pages.
