Hey everyone,
I don’t know about you, but I have a driving fear of Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. It has been sitting there as a weapon on my TBR bookshelf for the better part of three years. I’m not scared of big books. It is this specific book. 1200 pages of Victor Hugo’s writing and a lot of people saying it is hard to get through. It is terrifying.
Well this year I am going to conquer it and I invite you to come along. Starting in January we will be reading between 100-150 pages a month. We’ll talk about it at the end of the month.
Please let me know if you want to take part.
All my love to you,
Mariah
Les Misérables did not scare me when I read the unabridged book—–if I had just seen that book on the shelf with no former knowledge, I would have walked right past it. I gained a lot of knowledge from the musical, which helped me get through the book.

That’s a good point. It is still a little intimidating, but I’m hoping that I’ll enjoy the read if I take it slow and not try to hurtle through it.
