I liked it very much. Although the text sometimes gave more information than needed to the point it could get tedious, I loved the tragic story.

The Hunchback of Notre-Dame is so refreshing to read because it does not delve too much into human emotions. It does so at times, but considering that it is basically a classic human tragedy, it has to. I feel though that the name is a bit misleading. This is so because once you have read the complete book you will realize that the story revolves more around the girl called La Esmeralda rather than the hunchback Quasimodo; though of course he too has a significant role too play. The end is rather striking and unexpected.

I skipped several passages and one or two chapters because they were waaayyy too descriptive and did nothing for the plot, but the actual story was really good
