I’m not a Dickens fan as it is – I find him too depressing in a frustrating way, not in a relatable, making-me-sympathise-and-cry way – but Girl in a Blue Dress was recommended by a friend who also lent it to me, so I gave it a shot.

To be honest, I love any book which sheds light on the pig of a man Charles Dickens was...Loosely based off the garbage he did to his wife, I LOVED THIS BOOK...It is well worth the read.
A novel that I got sucked into right from the start. Very readable, and heartbreaking. The time shifts in the narrative take some getting used to, but it was worth it as the story unfolded.
