Les Miserables (abridged version) by Victor Hugo
Page 170/829

I'm reading this book because I thought Hugo wrote The Hunchbcak of Notre-Dame so wonderfully that I would be a fool not to give this book a try. Unfortunately, it's the abridged version which usually I disklike reading.

So far, I am nearly through the the first part titled "Fantine". It is quite the depressing story, and perhaps a future canidate for my favorite book (which the Hunchback so far holds). I'm sure most people have heard of this book and know something about it so I will leave out the details of my reading. If you haven't, I challenge you to read it. The abridged version is probably better for people who aren't used to the classics (or the sheer length of the book!).
