Oliver Twist
I hate this book! I hate it, I hate it, I hate it! Oliver Twist, written by Charles Dickens, has to be one of the worst books I have ever read. Everything in this book was sad, gloomy, and wrong. There was no happiness at all in this book. I picked this book because someone recommended it to me as being very good, but they didn’t tell me that it would be this sad. The book was actually very well written. Charles Dickens did an excellent job of portraying the way life was in the 1830’s in England. I didn’t like this book because it was a book about poverty, unfairness, and mistreatment. But, that is exactly why the book was written, so I will just pick out three different examples. One of my main reasons for disliking this book was the books tone. As soon as I started reading this book, I began to dislike it. It begins with a sickly infant child, Oliver, being born in a poor workhouse. His mother dies immediately after death, which sets the tone for the rest of the book. After nine months, he is sent to a branch workhouse for juvenile offenders who have broken the law by begging. The lady that runs the workhouse
