May I Have Some More Please?

My bookclub's next choice is Oliver Twist, by Charles Dickens. I originally suggested it a few days ago we read something in 2012 to celebrate his bicentennary. Since his birthday is on 7 February, that's when we'll hold our meeting to talk about the book.
If any of you wish to read it together with me, we can use LJ as a place to discuss the story as we progress through it. Perhaps every week or so we have an online catch up?
I've spent my entire life having people say to me "Oliver? As in Oliver Twist?" Or, "May I have some more please?" Or chirpy singing of "Oliver, Oliver, never before has a boy wanted mooooooore!" (So many original thinkers!)
But this will be the first time I read the book. I'm really looking forward to it.
