Comments on: The Sunday Salon – Reading Today … http://www.booksplease.org/2008/11/02/the-sunday-salon-reading-today/ A book lover writes about this, that and the other Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:14:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tuesday http://www.booksplease.org/2008/11/02/the-sunday-salon-reading-today/comment-page-1/#comment-2869 Tuesday Tue, 04 Nov 2008 00:47:07 +0000 http://www.booksplease.org/?p=1287#comment-2869 I recently finished reading <i>Les Miserables</i> and I fell in love with it. To be honest, though, I skimmed past several of the digressions (esp Waterloo) so I think I'll have to re-read it sometime in the future. I don't want to give anything away, but the second half of the book is very poetic and beautifully written - quite different from the earlier chapters. Happy reading :) I recently finished reading Les Miserables and I fell in love with it.

Happy reading :)

I hope I enjoy it as much as you did. Gautami right now I cannot imagine I shall ever re-read Les Miserables, it is so long and detailed, as though Hugo can't leave anything out as he keeps going off at all sorts of tangents.

It contains my very favourite moment in all of literature. I won't tell you what it is, as it's pretty spoilerish, but it's absolutely worth waiting for. I hope you enjoy the book, and all the others you have on the go! Huck Finn is one of my favourite classics. It contains my very favourite moment in all of literature.
