OMG! I am so so glad that we did this as a buddy read! This has been on my TBR for a along time.. I had always been interested in it and thought I would enjoy it... But I am so so glad that I read it because.. well it was amazing!!! I need to get my hands on the movie (I have never seen it! So I know I am in for a huge treat -- husband had requested I focused on this one because he wanted to re-watch it with me)

Chrissyreadit One of my favorite books of all time! I saw it on Broadway when I was 16 and still listen regularly to the music. 4y
ElizaMarie @Chrissyreadit I have never head any of the music! And I keep hearing everyone talk about how great the musical is. And who great the movie was and everything! I am excited to find it streaming somewhere so my husband and I can do a “virtual“ date with this one! 4y

Chrissyreadit Do you have Amazon prime? You can stream it there. 4y
mom2bugnbee My favorite musical ever, & my family is heavy into theatre, so that's saying something! ☺ Enjoy! 4y
ElizaMarie @Chrissyreadit I do have amazon prime! Thanks! I will definitely watch it this week :) I am super excited ! 4y
ElizaMarie @mom2bugnbee ooo good to know! I am like polar opposites with my family. I was a veracious reader as a child and loved dance/theatre but they were never really into it. So I lack a lot of those experiences as a kid (other than being in ballet and performing ballet type stories -- NutCracker) I hope when the world opens up I can see it on Broadway. 4y

So, yes fatherhood is not a central theme really but... Jean Val Jean became an amazing father to Cosette. So that's why I am going to use that for this prompt.

mom2bugnbee Actually, I think that fatherhood is a huge theme in Les Mis. I'd definitely use it for that bingo square! ☺ 4y
ElizaMarie @mom2bugnbee Thank you. I feel like it fit but... I don know if ti would be the “central“ them but more like “one of the“ central themes. Anyway. I am not being graded or anything with these bingos. so I do tend to pick things that “make sense to me“ ... But thank you so much for your comment. 4y

I am going to officially pick the prompt of “book in translation“ for this one.

Bookworm54 I need to get cracking with this months volume. I am getting behind! It‘s because I am trying to read the sign books too. And I still really want to read the other plc book 😭🤣 4y
ElizaMarie @Bookworm54 I am still hoping to read the second #PLC book as well. I just haven't gotten it yet. So maybe it will be a July read :) 4y
AkashaVampie @Bookworm54 @ElizaMarie u dont have to read them when we read them if u cant. 4y
Bookworm54 @AkashaVampie I know, Dragon Bound just sounded super good though! ☺️ 4y
ElizaMarie @AkashaVampie yeah that‘s how I feel too. I had heard good things about Dragon Bound so I‘ll get to it soon :) 4y

Alice looks how I feel after finally finishing this book! I have to say, I didn't love it. While I enjoyed some of the character story lines I found most of the writing tedious and slightly rambling. I can appreciate it as a classic but not one of my favourites. #classics2020 #catsoflitsy #lesmiserables #readlesmis2020

I finished Cosette. Gonna wait till May (or late April to get to the next part since I'm doing the #ReadingWithTBRCrew Buddy Read.

I am really enjoying this though. I think I prefer reading it rather than listening (but I listened to all of Cosette during my cross country drive). I will go back to using the Kindle.
