emilycarney 's review for:

Notre-Dame de Paris by Victor Hugo
3.5

certainly a book. if you’re looking for lots of references that assume you know your Rembrandts or extremely detailed description of Parisian geography and city planning in the 1400s then look no further I guess.
bit gobsmacked that they all just die at the end. was fuming when they almost sacrificed the goat and not in a good ‘I’m invested in this book’ way, just in a ‘thats fucked up’ way. 
required reading once you’re hit that 2 year french duolingo streak though ig. musical is better.
