A review by caidyn
Les Misérables, Tome I by Victor Hugo
DNF at page 134
I'm a bit disappointed by this. Honestly, this is the only Hugo book that I have a huge interest in reading. Sure, I'll give Les Mis a try, but I'm not into that story. But, this one? To this day, the Disney movie is the only movie that I can actually finish and get over the halfway through boring stuff. This book just didn't do it for me. It's a love letter to Notre Dame. I just felt my eyes glazing over as I read the multitude of descriptions. And the characters? Nothing to say about them, really. They were second fiddle to the church.
