Critics appreciate one of his novel , which is in my reading list, "Oliver Twist"as under:

"Relatively to the other works of Dickens Oliver Twist is not of great value, but it is of great importance. Some parts of it are so crude and of so clumsy a mlodrama, that one is almost tempted to say that Dickens would have been greater without it. But even if he had been greater without it he would still have been incomplete without it."
A good many of his work available on-line
