Les Miserables is actually my all time favorite book, but yes, it is definitely a slog, especially the 100 or so pages in the middle that fully describe the Battle of Waterloo but have nothing to do with the rest of the story. I still recommend reading it just so you can say you made it through. =D
That's awesome, Amber! It actually makes me want to read it now just for the entertainment of seeing how far off the rails Hugo goes. Kudos to you for getting through it!
What a fantastic eclectic post. I see another novel in the making!!
Loved it!
