Are there any Christmas Carole students on ATAR notes?

I was just wondering if there are any students studying the book and what their thoughts are of it?

We could even start a discussion that could benefit everyone. However I think it's unlikely.  :)

I would be one of them :)
I think that the book is enjoyable and there is a lot to write about. I like the historical context of the book as well as the deeper meanings. Dickens expression is also rather enjoyable.

Very Good book however the language is hard to grasp since its written around mid 1800's.

It takes a bit to get used to. What I have done is started a glossary of sorts. In the back of my folder I have some paper, and I write down a word and the definition that I don't understand. I then later on put this in a sentence as revision, so that hopefully I understand it better and maybe if it's relevant use it in essays.

Cheers everyone! Actually this might be lazy on my behalf and I don't really want to bother anyone. However if you guys can be able to upload some of your notes (as in quotes and whatever that was useful to your studies) that would make me the happiest student in VCE. Otherwise its okay with me :)!

Never read the book but I went to watch it as a play recently. Would've loved to study it instead of stupid/boring Cosi
