Been listening to the audiobook since Monday and Meryl Streep can indeed do anything!

Gurrlll..

Obsessed.

Halfway through and so far I’ve felt horrified, amazed, heartbroken, angry, even inspired. Yet it’s also funny, frightening, exhilarating, and edifying. What a book!

!!!!!

Monsieur Madeleine 💔 and Fantine and Cosette! 🥺

Okay so these scholarly youths are actually a bunch of idiots.

Two chapters in and I’m already captivated and enraptured by this book!

There are tides.. from different halls.. with a lot of vestibules.. during the fifth month of the year the albatross came into the south western hall.. 😵‍💫 make it make sense

Richard is pretentious but in an understandable and relatable way? Bunny is obnoxious. Henry is a bit rude, Charles is mostly nice, Camilla is pretty and smart, and Francis is a bit mysterious, fashionable and also super smart. So far that’s what I’ve gathered. In the tiniest little nutshell. Enjoying it.

I don’t even have words. I’m just a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions upon finishing this book. At a sprint I read the final third of it over about 5 hours. I had ‘ups’ with hope then ‘downs’ with heartbreak then more heartbreak upon another but still held on to hope until it started to shine brighter again, slowly. But in the end there were losses that couldn’t be regained and I suppose that is life.
